Yyyaaaahhhhhooooooo Found an apartment.....and it's good.

After months of looking we had found what we wanted only to have it fall through a month before we leave for our trip.

I dreaded looking again.

THEN A MIRACLE HAPPENED. A new listing on Airbnb opened up in Covent Garden right where we wanted to be. It was more than we wanted to spend but it was so nice we bit the bullet and BOOKED it. We had to change our dates slightly and move our trip later by 3 days but whoooohooooo I am so happy. We will be in London for 11 nights.

We leave Canada on October 18 and we fly home on the 23rd of November. OMG......I'm so excited.

Now off to book a rental car for the first 23 days....LOL

I just wanted to thank you all for your amazing patience and incredible help through the last several months. It was so much pressure to make this trip perfect for my hubby and my Mom and your help was so appreciated. I promise to help others in the future as soon as we get back.

I am so happy now.

What a relief! My Mom used to say that "sometimes bad things happen for the best outcome" You must be living right. So now you can all go and have a great trip.
Have Fun!

Jazz ??? I know that but I wanted to make the right decision so I guess I felt stressed about it. So in all my excitement and thanking people that is what you focus on. Ok.
