We are mobile

We picked up our rental car today
A Black dodge.  Nothing exciting
What was exciting was Julie doing all the driving in a left hand drive car on the wrong side of the road and its an auto !
We got round safely

Also managed to locate a store that sells sim cards.  Not easy to get in the US.  Gives us a local number as well as unlimited calls, texts, and a decent bit of internet.  Also 1000mins of calls to UK and anyone can call us from the UK at the cost of a local rate call via a special number

Also went to have a look at our "condo" at least the grounds and a look at a show flat
The facilities are amazing http://www.citigatejax.com/
I hope our condo looks as good as the show condo.  Pics to follow
We move in on friday

Tomorrow we are back to the Proton centre for a tour of the facility and a friends and family lunch

P.S
The tour around citigatejax.  A young lady showed us the pool, gym and facilites in the "lodge" then offered to show us one of the show apartments.  She said to jump onto a electric golf buggy parked outside.  She then proceded through the gate to an apartment block less than 50 yards from where we started ! it would have been quicker to walk
I asked if there were any trails or walks nearby.  She said she would show us and drove the buggy over the path through a couple of small lakes/ponds no more than 200yrds and said that was the walk/trail !!!
Amazing !

  1. Hi Paul and Julie!!!

    Mums just given me the link for the blog. Will be following closely. The condo looks great! A world away from some of the places I've been staying recently. A big happy birthday to Julie from me and will be thinking of you. All the best Uncle Paul!! Dan (Ken) xxx
