The Tanabata was supposed to be docked yesterday and departing today. So far, none of the 114 sibilings have been offloaded according to the Wallenius website.

Since this is the last chance to track it so closely, it's kind of...well, not frustrating...but I'm certainly still shifting from one foot to another in anticipation. It has a come on, come on, come ON aspect of it. It's certainly the slowest horserace in town! My bets are on us though.

Budcat-Yes, I was seriously considering driving it back, but have opted to have it shipped. The drive-in period is supposed to be *variable* speeds and I wouldn't be able to give it that in the short time I'd have to get back to Arizona. However, I really liked the idea of the trip. I know of someone who bought his from MINI of Charleston and he had a good experience with Dana Prato. I didn't care for my local dealer.
