New adventures are about to commence pretty soon. This time they are not only my own adventures. For the time being I fall back into my 'old life', whereas everything is going to change for P. and La Gina. We are all a little worried. We are all more than excited. We are all starting to get really nervous.
So in late January we are leaving Argentina to get to Germany. We are taking Gina with us aboard the plane inside the cabin. Regulations force us to keep her in a pretty small bag 'underneath the seat in front of you'. Poor littly doggy. The bag with Gina inside is not allowed to weigh more than 8kg. That is pretty tight for Gina. But we do not want her to be sent together with the cargo.
This is what happened through the last few days:
t-14d:
- prepared and sent out boxes (i.e. sent them to Germany: 1.2 cubic meters, 216kg, 1453 USD)
- finalized international freight documents for aforementioned boxes
- went to Argentine customs (again... doh!)
- clarified insurance for La Gina
- clarified health insurance for P.
- packed more boxes (to be sent out to P.'s parents)
- prepared lots of emails to be sent out on arrival in Germany
- picked up crowdfunded CDs (thx again Gaby)
- took La Gina to the vet for the health certificate and the travel medication (she now officially weighs 8.5kg, which is still slightly too much; but I guess we're gonna be okay)
- had a look into combined liability and health insurance for La Gina...
t-11d:
- contracted liability insurance for the dog
- packed more boxes
- prepared German "Sachkundeprüfung" for the doggy (NHundG sucks big time even if I think it's a good thing to ask dog owners to educate themselves about dogs BEFORE they own one)
- went to SENASA for the EU customs form for dogs
- went to the vet again
- packed more boxes
- sick leave (P. caught a cold)
