Flights are booked!!

I am soooooo excited! Yesterday I went to Trailfinders and booked my flights! Managed to book every one bar the Vancouver to San Francisco leg on the One World Explorer ticket. Couldn't do that flight because although it's an American Airlines flight it's actually operated by Alaskan Airlines and as they're not part of the alliance I couldn't book it. Can always sort it out when I get to the US so I'm not too worried. Came to £2317.10 in the end which wasn't bad as I have about 17 flights in total on there. Had a really helpful man at Trailfinders called Dan who I'm going to call tomorrow as well to book a 3 day liveaboard trip to Lizard bay and Cod Hole for when I'm in Cairns and also I'm going to book my Sydney Harbour Bridge climb through him as well. Only £3 more expensive than booking it myself so it's just as easy to book the whole thing in one go. Will also book the Africa tour tomorrow. Planning to go into Acacia tomorrow to go book it in person as it's only a 5 minute walk from work. It's all coming together now. When that's booked have no more to book! Am also planning to pop into the Drs tomorrow to start making appointments for my injections. Am going to need some of them for India anyway and if I'm going there in May need to get them sorted out soon anyway! Trailfinders have recommended I get Diphtheria - Tetanus - Polio, Typhoid, Hepatitis A, Meningitis, Rabies, Hepatitis B, TB, Japanese Encephalitis, Yellow Fever and of course, anti-malarials. Fortunately have had Hep B with work and was BCG vaccinated as a kid although working in the field of TB at the moment I know it's fairly pointless me being vaccinated anyway! I'm so excited!!!!!!!!
