UK bound!

Sooo last week my life went into a completely different direction.... literally! Ben and I decided to stop working on the disney cruise ships, and decided try and make a life for ourselves onland! :) Soooo...last week i was a busy beaver, figuring out how to go about applying for UK visa, actually applying for that visa, and getting all my money and paper work together! We decided to start our land adventure with me applying for a UK visa first, because it seems like it is a much shorter process then Ben applying for a Canadian Visa. Plus... Ben is at still on the ship, so he has no method of doing any visa work at the moment!
Monday i have my appointment/ interview in toronto, and hopefully my visa will arrive shortly after that! I am hoping to make it to the UK by August 22nd, which is when camp starts! ( "Camp" is something Ben's family does every year. They all go to a camp site for a week, live in tents, cook food on the fire.. Ben has never missed a year, and he was literally born there... well his mom went into labour with him there!) it is a very special place for their family and i would love to make it to the UK by then. Fingers crossed my visa gets approved on time!  i will keep you up to date on my UK Visa progress!!
