I wish I had 13 days off right now.

:yes:

So when are you leaving Doodle? You must be so excited about seeing your hubby again. :luv:

Allah tries his chosen people through many hardships, but those who persevere through adversity, surrendering themselves before the will of Allah, shall be blessed with a superb reward.

-The Prophet Muhammad (SAW), as reported by Anas bin Malik

A time will come when the sky is torn apart; when the stars scatter, and the ocean drains away; and when the graves are tossed about, and laid open. At that time every man will be told what he has done, and what he has failed to do; and every woman will be told what she has done, and what she has failed to do.

-Qur'an, Al-Infitar, Surah 82:1-5

K3s only pay $100. It's the CR1 that is $380. Monnik's husband did a DCF which is a CR1 which costs $380. Did I confuse you yet?

Ok....so......the $100 which he already paid to CIB is all that was needed and now at the interview he will only have to pay the 50 or whatever pounds for DHL, is that correct? Are there other fees for the K-3 like fingerprint fees?

Just when I think I know what I'm doing.... :wacko:

I leave at 5:55pm Friday afternoon, though I"ll prolly leave at around 2pm to drive to the airport.

I'm very excited but I really cannot wait till he's here and we can take a totally STRESS FREE vacation with no worries about interviews or how to get married, etc. On the bright side I've lost 6 pounds in the past 5 days due to stress! :thumbs:

Yes, the only thing he'll have to pay is 48LE for DHL. No extra fees for fingerprints unless they call him up later and request it.

What you just posted was correct Doodle is costs my fiance 48 L.E. for the DHL delivery in advance that's all he will need. After this all you have to do is kick back and wait through A/P! I hope you enjoy yourself and have a safe trip!! Have a great day everyone!

PHEW!!!!

OMG all night I was thinking ####### now another $380 might as well cancel the flat and just stay in Cairo!!! Now we can proceed as planned!!! :dance::dance::dance:

Also, he seems to think it will cost 300 pounds or so to eat out at restaurants everyday. Is that true or is he just a ding dong? Sounds like a lot of money though pounds aren't dollars so what do I know. He's talking nice restaurants though and I was like, ####### koshari costs less than a dollar and I can live on that!! lol

300 Egyptian pounds = 52.7184 U.S. dollars

Sounds about right to me for 2 people.

He may be talking about fast food or other restaurants not street food like koshari or fuul and falafel. For combo meals at McDee's for 3 ppl it costs about 60LE. If you're gonna eat McDee's or other fast food then count on more than 300LE for the time you'll be there. Our bill at a cafe in Giza was about 72LE for shawarma sandwiches, Pepsi, tea and sheesha. That was only one meal. He's not high balling it, he's actually low balling it IMO. Oh unless he's talking 300LE a day then that's way high balling it.

PHEW!!!!

No he means between 200 and 300 LE per day to eat out, but he wasn't thinking McD's. He has some restaurants in mind for fish with the gross pukey heads staring right at you.

Ok so more stress...it will cost me approx $130 to park my car for the duration at an airport lot. This is ALL so that my parents, who basically live in the same town, don't come to my house, see my car, knock on the door, and freak when no one answers and call 911 thinking I'm dead.

:blink:

Because of this I"ve decided to tell my mom that I"m going. I feel like I"m gonna hurl. :dead::dead:
