Eight More Days and Counting

I've started making lists, and quit grocery shopping. Someone came to view our house yesterday with the realtor. It would be nice, but selling the house right now would be too much! Visas and passports have been obtained. Today I downloaded a 7 page orientation from ASH for the week ofAugust 10. Someone is going to pick us up at Amsterdam Airport, and take us to Minerva Hotel in Leiden. The school is picking up the tab for that. (And also for the flight for both of us) Fred has arranged for us to pick up a rental car and go see several apartments the day we arrive (July 28). Sure hope Vinnie the cat can handle the trip!
