Jade Down Under

I have 10 working days left, with lots of Christmas in between. I'm ready to leave and am counting down the days.
I've started packing. I'm allowed 100lbs with Japan Airlines but only 50lbs with Virgin. Ain't that great? I don't know exactly what I'm going to do. I figure I'll pack as lightly as possible and pay the overweight fees when I get to Australia. It should be about $200.00. I've looked at other options but either they are the same price as Virgin overweight fees, or much, much more. Canada Post was about the same price but why would I mail my stuff when I can have it with me? Hopefully I'm making the right choice.

PS - Melissa re-booked her flight. She will be staying with me for the duration of her trip and all is well.
