I got up early this morning to see if "Edgar" made it on the Don Juan (ship) to head to New York. The Don Juan sets sail today from Southampton, England to New York.
When logging onto the Cargo Status web page for W&W, I see he is now booked, but is on the Integrity leaving on 8/5/2008! Oh well, I'd heard there had not been a ship leaving England for over 10 days and alot of MINIs were ahead of him.
So, assuming that the weather cooperates and there's no pirate attacks (grin), he should be arriving in New York on 8/11/2008. He'll spend at least 2 days at the BMW VDC (Vehicle Distribution Center) in New Jersey, then head to the Dealer in Southampton, NY. At MINI of the Hamptons, he'll probably be there 3 to 4 days getting ready for my visit.
So, now, I have to get the loan finalized, schedule the time off (did I post that I've decided NOT to ship him, but to fly out and drive him back?) and get my plane tickets ready... It's going to be a gamble reserving a flight without knowing for sure when he'll be ready.
T-minus ?? days and counting?
