Dr Waks said to me "I sent your results in an envelope straight to the consulate so that they will have it there already when you get there for your interview". Maybe this is a new procedure? Well, we shall see. When he sends me a copy of the results that I requested I can always take those with me too, to have all my bases covered.

I'm located in Sydney... much more convenient for me than it is for you guys, I was so amazed when I read they only do the interview in Sydney... still, Sydney is a great place! ;) Hope you guys are enjoying your visits.

Hey that is exciting! :D *waves back*

Okay, the city is Lexington Park in St. Marys County, I'll give you directions... start in Baltimore, follow the Chesapeake river south... no, keep going... keep going....still not there yet.... okay, that little river is the Paxuent river... swim across and you're there! (watch out for navy folk though;) ).

If you keep going south you're swimming again, and then you're in VA... and you've gone too far :D

I'll be flying into Baltimore but I'm starting off in LA, Tonys family live in LA and they're looking forward to meeting me so I'll be there for about a week to get aquainted before I move into my new home in MD.

*waves again to all the MD people*

Oh, and I live about a hours drive north of the city, more like 2 hours by public transport as you would expect. Thats why I'll probably do the 3kg sachel thing. Still, much more convenient than if I lived in other states like you guys.

Yay! Thats great! I can't wait until thats me.

Soo... When are you travelling then? :D

I remember when I was waiting for the application to be approved. Seemed like it would take forever. We got a request for more evidence... what sucked was they asked us for something that wasn't even on the list of required documents. The request came in the mail literally a couple of days after Tony flew here to visit, so we couldn't put it in until after he got back, a month later! Still, it was pretty quick after that, then suddenly the package 3 arrived in the mail and I've been running around getting everything ready every since.

Quick question, have you considered getting your birth certificate, police check and medical prior to getting your package 3? Does anyone else end up doing that?

Hey I don't mind 20 questions at all :) I'm in my last semester at Macquarie, doing a social science degree. Tony and I have been an item for two years, we met in May of 2005 on a train going to Epping station of all places... hahaha. We got to chatting and I invited him to meet me at Epping Club later in the week and things sort of went from there.

I'm looking seriously at dates around July 10-16. Uni finishes 29th of June and then after that I've allowed a couple of weeks to tie up all the loose ends and spend time with my mum. Mum is on school holidays then so its good timing. So, if I hit LA for a week, I'll be in MD by the end of July and married around the same time :) So excited! Its nice to know that there are plenty of other aussies rambling about MD.

Oh, by the by, I have a question for the MD people only... Elle, I reckon you could help me out with this one...

What steps do I take to get a drivers licence for MD? How easy was it for you?
