Well after a long wait which seemed to be forever I finally met with HR and got the offer package for my relocation. I will officially become an ExPatriot sometime in July! I will be living in Brisbane and working in the CBD (Central Business District).
Here is my schedule (it could get pushed back by a week or two depending upon the visa approval):
07/06/2007: Last day of work at CitiStreet US
07/11/2007: Fly to Brisbane from Boston
07/13/2007: Arrive in Brisbane (not a typo- its a two day journey)
07/18/2007: Start work at CitiStreet AU
I will be flying into the dead of the Brisbane Winter! Luckily the average temperature is going to be somewhere in the 50's - 60's!

Wow - congrats Ernie. Can't believe it's finally happening. I can't wait to see what it's like down there. I think the Lady Burds and I may have to have a suppah club down there. Enjoy it!!!
Hi Ernie,
It was good seeing you at mom's on the 4th and to be able to give you a send off. Good luck at your new home and with the job. We'll be looking forward to your updates.

Brush up on your aussie slang on your 2-day excursion. xo KJ
Gotta love the AU lingo. I think I am going to hear the locals out prior to using any of their lingo. I could get some very strange looks trying to fit in with the lingo and a bad Boston accent!
good luck and God Bless!
Love You!

Hey Ernie,
We will miss you so much...but this is the chance of a lifetime! Best of luck getting adjusted and we look forward to hearing about all of your adventures.
Lots of Love,
