D Day minus 2

It's only two days before we set off to Manchester. Terry has been working in a local school and doing things for our trip when he gets home. Quite tiring so he is ready for a long break. I've been doing all the necessary things to get ready for the trip as well as having plenty of rest, to try to get my energy levels up again after my relapse. Everything is done now except for the packing which we will do tomorrow - Saturday. On Sunday we will just have to pack the last minute things , close up the house ( dealing with the rubbish - trash- turning the heating down- setting the timers for the lights etc) and then we are travelling to Manchester, stopping at Ron and Carol's on the way. We are going to pick up Terry's mandolin ( thank you Paula) which Ron has repaired and got in working order again. Ron is a wizz where anything to do with wood is concerned - many thanks Ron. It will be good to see them again as it was in between Christmas and New Year when we saw them last. Plenty of catching up to do. Hope we see more of each other when the camping season gets going again. After a night in a motel at Manchester, we fly out on Monday morning arriving at Orlando 2.45 local time. Lets hope the strong winds we are having at the moment die down or we might have a bumpy flight.
