Visa Situation

... is resolved. My sister and I got our visas today. So, England, here we come. I am so excited. I have a 6 months multiple entry visa to UK. Since Matt will be there in February, which is only a couple of months away, I will be able to visit him virtually right away. This visa news is the best news I have received in a quite a few weeks, because it means that I will be able to see my husband more often :)

So, now that we go the visas, Matt got hit pretty hard. Not only did he buy me a ticket from Moscow to London with his miles, but he also ended up buying my sister a ticket with miles as well. Don't take me wrong, she can afford it, but she was going to use her own miles, and the day before we got our visas all the seats that could be purchased with miles through her company were sold out, and she did not want to pay $650 per ticket just to get to London (not that I blame her). So, Matt was very generous and sacrificed some of his miles to ensure that 2 (out of 4) my mostly loved people are with me during New Years. My husband rocks!!! I keep telling him that, but he says that he knows that already :) So, I figured I would tell that to others, you (my dear readers) just might now how much my husband rocks, but he is absolutely wonderful. I lucked out!!! I don't say that he rocks only because he forked up some miles for my sister, but also when my sister told him that she would get him a present for such a gesture and asked what he would like, you know what he replied? Well, I am going to quote here "I don't need any presents beyond my wifes company :) and maybe her happiness" Not many guys would behave the same. I got a good guy on my side, what can I tell. My happiness and presence to him is much more important than anything material you have to offer.

Yeah, we are going to be in London, Dec. 27 through January 5 (Matt will be leaving on Jan. 2), Jan 2 through Jan 5 my sister, our mutual friend and I will be in Manchaster, and then Jan 5 we will be back home in Moscow to recoop and get ready for work on January 9 :) I have a feeling this is going to be the best trip ever!!! Sorry, not ever. Miami trip was a bit better :) Not only Matt took me to Miami in the middle of the winter, which is a real treat, but he also surprised me there with a marriage proposal.


I am counting days till London, so does Matt. He informed me this early evening that we have 27 days left. I am so excited!!! My first trip to Europe and with my loved ones :)
