We are here at last!!!!

Hi!

We made it! We have set up our home here in Onslow at last. It is wonderful to be here. Everyone we have met here has been so very kind and helpful.

I am not missing the packing up or moving.

The packing up took hours- everything thing was wrapped and I mean everything! We helped with the packing and it still took from 8.15 am until 6.30 pm. Can you believe it?

The next day it was 41 degrees. The poor removalists had to move 45 cubic metres of furniture.
That took from 8.15am until 6.30 pm. Then I started cleaning.

It was exhausting.

John's parents looked after us for a couple of nights. Thanks to both of you for your kindness and generosity.

A big thank you to Beryl and Laurie for their kind thoughts and wishes for our family. Your card was so sweet.

Here are some pictures of the family on the way up.

It took two days to unpack all the main boxes. After I got over the frogs in the toilet I felt very happy.

We were invited to see one of the beautiful, deserted islands here- Direction Island, it is part of the Mackerel Islands.

Some photos are below. I wanted to take more but the batteries in my camera ran out.

I managed to squeeze in some craft. I made a new journal using the rope stitch. I added some houses by Collections Elements.

Thanks for looking!
