Bob and I had a long day, it is so nice to settle down into our own bed again, knowing that all the boxes are in our new apartment. Got our keys at 10:00am, then brought Eggroll into the apartment and locked her in the bedroom. Then we had to wait a bit for our garage to be ready, because all of Bob's tools and his motorcycle (in pieces) were the first things to come out of the truck. The maintenance man was very nice and got everything clean and fixed for us very fast. Then the fun began. For those who don't know, we now live on the second floor. That means every box and piece of furniture also had to be on the second floor. Including what may very well be The Largest Couch in the World. So we walked up and down, up and down, up and down, until suddenly there was only one small table left. I started cheering I was so happy to be done.
We did take breaks, and had lunch at a nice sandwich shop. That helped keep us from getting too tired.
The new apartment complex is very nice, lots of pretty plants growing all over, palm trees and bougainvillea everywhere. It is very well maintained and so far the staff have been very friendly and helpful. I took a picture of the courtyard in front of our place. We are on the left side of the picture, at the top of the stairs.
Eggroll is doing well, she has been pretty hyper, exploring all of our belongings all over again. I'm glad that the trip didn't seem to effect her negatively.
The apartment is kind of a mess right now, I will put up more pictures as things get organized and decorated. For those wanting our new address, I won't be putting it up here in case of crazies, but I will try to text or email it out to everyone. If I forget to send it to you for some reason, just bug me until I remember ;-D Time to sleep!









The apartment looks wonderful! I look forward to more pics when you're all settled in. I can't believe that Robert and you moved that couch up to the second floor! Please email me your new address so I can send a Christmas Card to you guys! Happy Trails,
