Money Money Money

I was finally able to get some currency converted for all the countries I am going to. If an future SASers read this - get the money packet. It makes life so much easier. There is only one place in Nashville where you can exchange currency and of course it is in the airport. Once I found them it really wasn't all the bad, but the first woman I talked to who had no idea what she was doing and wanted me to wait 30 minutes for the next guy to start his shift. Needless to say Mom and I didn't wait. I went back later and Chad was very helpful. He was able to give the Euro, Japanese Yen and Moroccan money. I went an picked up Vietnam, South Africa, India, and China yesterday. It is neat looking at all the different money. South Africa is my favorite because it has the Big 5 on it. It is also crazy to think that 25 UDS is equal to 330,000 Vietnamese Dong. Kind of crazy.

On a different note - only 5 days until I leave for Halifax - its crazy! Then a week from today we actually set sail. WBKO and WKU both did stories on us this week. Click the links if you want to read more.
I have pretty much everything laid out that I am taking, but it hasn't quite made its way into my suitcases yet. But other then that I only have 3 more things left to buy and they are small things, so now all there is to wait....
