Put some money on the card for a GPS or upgrade yours. Makes getting around soo much less stressful.Good luckL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esthee Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Congrats!! You made my day, its been 371 days now that we've been waiting and still nothing. Also on the 175CSL. At least now I know its not just us that have to wait so long. Sometimes it starts to feel like we've missed the bus. Enjoy your two week LSD, we've got a similar plan once our visas gets through, but we'll probably just do Melbourne, maybe Sydney too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
