I went to Atlanta over this Veteran's Day weekend to visit my wife and arrange a few more things for the move. Needless to say, visiting my wife was great, but getting things ready to move was less fun. We did, however, do some very important things. First of all, we prepared the car for the trip. We got it detailed, washed the undercarriage, removed the snowboard/bike racks, and generally prepared it to sit for 6-8 weeks. We're shipping it on Tuesday. I hope that it will be there when we get there, but that would mean that it made it in 5 weeks. That'd be fast. We'll likely have to wait 1-3 weeks for it.
We also prepared the dog crate for the dog's trip. We spray-painted some labels on it. We stenciled "My name is Niky" and "Live Animal" in both English and Italian. We also took a dry run to the airport to make sure we know what to do when we get down there with the dog and cat. It's pretty simple, but I'm glad we did that. We have to check in, pay the fee, and then drop the dog off at oversized baggage. We just went down to make sure that we know where all of those places are so that we can inflict as little stress on the dog as possible. Below are some pictures of her crate. I hope that the Italians talk to her when the take her off the plane! "Ciao, Niky."
