11 more sleeps

Only 11 sleeps to go.  I have printed out our bus tickets and also completed our on-line check in and printed our boarding passes.

I have brought some currency. I got USD $300 @ $1.005 per  Aussie dollar, so it cost me AUD $298.510.

I chose a mixture of $20, $10, $5, $1.

And I also brought some French Polynesian Francs or XPF as they are known in the currency world.. They will take a little getting used too. I got $25,000 Francs @ 83.00 Francs per Aussie dollar.

It seems that this currency come  in 500 and 1000 notes. So with my bad maths skills that makes them worth about $6 and $12 respectively.

Here is a pretty picture.



The Francs don't fit into my wallet so will have to come up with some where else to store them. The exchange place gave me a nice little baggy, so they may just stay in there.



I have borrowed a bag of dresses from Tammy and have given them all a refresh wash today, so they are all hanging up drying around the house.

I only have 4 more work days although that has slowly creped up to 4 and a bit days as there is an important meeting that I have to go to the day before we sail out. So I will head in for a 1/2 day.

I still need to sort out all my work stuff and do a bit of a hand over.

Off to get ready for for a friends wedding now
