The FINAL Countdown...

So...the moment I've been waiting for since receiving my contract is finally here!  My journey begins this Tuesday, August 7 at 8:40pm on Qatar Airlines.  It will be a 15 hour and 35 minute flight (jealous yet?) that will go to Doha, Qatar and then leave for Abu Dhabi at 8:45pm on August 8.  At the end of all of this travel, I should land in Abu Dhabi around 10:45pm!!!  I will officially be an Expat!  Can you tell the excitement of finally having a date to tell people I'm leaving?  No more "I'm not sure.  I could leave between August 6-11".
