We Have Arrived

Unpacked and set our new home up.

It has been a pretty busy 18 days since we took possession of our apartment. Boxes unpacked, furniture built (pretty happy if I never see another piece of Ikea furniture ever) stuff put away - whether or not it is put away exactly where I want it, only time will tell.

Survived our first Typhoon T 8 (one of the highest ) last Wednesday -Very windy some rain but all in all we were a tad disappointed !!  Basically the whole city closes down, no public transport, no Taxi's (well extra cash will help find one) No nothing....... Since then the weather has been pretty ordinary, but very humid - today it is 87%, but a lovely sea gust.

Jenaya started school last Thursday, and absolutely loved it YAY. She has hooked up with a nice group of girls, they even hit the movies after school last Friday. Kai starts school tomorrow. He met his teacher on Friday and checked out his new class room and school, so fingers crossed that he enjoys the new school as much as Noodle. (photo's of them both in new uniforms will appear in the next couple of days).

Hong Kong ID cards for all of us have been done, now just waiting for the official card. This is very handy to have, because without this baby you basically can get a big fat nothing done. Drivers license's are next which by all accounts very easy to get. No test, just a copy of our Australian license and ID card. Then a car would be handy !!

Anywho, everyone has settled in very well, even Daisy dog has taken well to apartment living, maybe too well. No photo's right now of the new abode - but I will get on to that today.

Below are some photo's of the beautiful sunsets we have had.
