9 months to go

Slight change of plans. We need to fly out by the 15th March rather than the 31st as there is $4500 difference in airfares. The reason  is that Easter comes early next year (29th March) so we now will fly out on the 15th. My dentist put me onto a great site where you can lease a brand new car for $1700 for 2 months including insurance. I have yet to check it out but it is definately cheaper than renting one with the added benefit of travelling through borders without hassles as some rental companies have restrictions on countries you can take their cars.
