Here's an update.
Since May, George's parents have been to visit, I've been home to Canada to visit a family member who's been in the hospital (she's still ill but on the slow road to recovery) and upon returning to Australia we moved house. We are still in the country, just a few hours drive up the coast, well quite a few hours drive up the coast.
Here's a bit of our journey over the past 2 months.
We started with a yard sale.
George LOVES going to yard sales and I think he liked having one almost as much. We had loads of fun that day. Our plan was to get started at the usual yard sale start time of 8:00 am but by 7:15 there were knocks on the door. I found this quite funny...people knocking at the door so early. After the 6th time I answered the door (it wasn't funny by this point) we decided to open up shop. Apparently with the city being so transient there is quite a market for yardsale items and it has become a business venture for quite a few people and as they say...the early bird gets the worm!
We met some lovely people that day. There was the gentleman who's son was moving into his first apartment and he was out picking up some things to help him out, then there was the little boy who's dad got him the homemade bean bag chair that we had also picked up at a yard sale and then there was the lady who had this wonderful Scottish accent. I mentioned to her that she sounded just like a friend of mine back in England. She asked where my friend was from and as it turned out this lady I had just met was from a neighbouring community. It really is a small world.
A few days later, after cramming everything we could into suitcases and cleaning the house we were finally ready to head out on our next adventure. The car was over packed and loaded down but we were on our way! It was a couple days drive, we took our time and after a few stops along the road, including the Macadamia Castle.....
a must for any macadamia nut loving tourist, we arrived at our new home town. Well I guess I should say new home city. We have never lived right in the middle of a city before so this is a new experience.
