I'm really happy for you...you have had to wait wayyyyy too long. I hope all goes well.

Can you tell me how long it took for you to get a visitors/tourist visa to go to Pakistan to visit? Today makes 5 weeks I have waited. I was supposed to leave this Saturday, but still waiting. Now of course the embassy is closed Thursday and Friday...grrrr....no answers to emails. The web site says 5-6 weeks to get the visa. Now I plan to try to leave a week from Saturday. I already lost money this summer waiting for a visa... not gonna make the mistake of booking a flight early again, but costs of the flight go up the closer it gets...I am soooo over immigration #######....
