We finally vacated the condo yesterday and officially handed over the keys to the new owner. We are staying with my cousin P2 and his wife Jaisri and their cute kid Arundati - see picture. Started the day by making a trip to oversee the carpet shampooing....then picked up a bunch of stuff that we had stored in the garage to be give to Goodwill, then we both went to the chiropracter for what may very well end up being our final "adjustments", then a trip to the travel agent to book our one way tickets home, then to the licensing office to transfer the title of my car to the new owner, then back to the condo storage to pick up more stuff for a friend.....we thought we would just pop inside to see if the carpets had dried and it was a good thing cos the carpet cleaner had dumped the icky water and junk in the toilet and had clogged up the toilet drain!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So we had to "Drano" it and wait 15 minutes for it to unclog - which thankfully it did. Then a final last look around and back to P2's place. Then as if we hadn't done enough during the day R and I went for a 3 mile walk around Greenlake. I'll really miss the water when i get back home. Seattle has beautiful lakes and parks and you cannot go for a mile without seeing some sort of lake....well, I guess i will have Hussein Sagar lake in Hyderabad. So obviously i was too exhausted to post anything on the blog yesterday.
Now we have a lot of leg work to do for our US road trip. We leave Seattle on the 9th of May and will be going by road to San Jose, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Yellowstone, Billings, Duluth, Toronto, Buffalo and then finally New Jersey. All this in about a month. Then a couple of trips by air to Miami and Florida and then back to New Jersey for our final week's stay before we leave for Hyderabad on the 27th of June. So we have to finalise car reservations, accomodations en route and flight details. Whew! Even tho its a lot of work we're enjoying every minute of it.
