Welsh Adventure

We've been incredibly busy and jetlagged, so have been remiss in updating you all promptly about our happy landings here in Wales - first of all, the closing and handover of our home took place as planned on Jan 22, without a hitch. We bought champagne to celebrate with my brother John and Michelle.

Of note is the fact that we have NO snow on the ground, just lots of puddles. Here is a view of sheep grazing on the hill outside my front window.


We bought a large amount of 'stuff' with us, to equip our empty kitchen during our first week here. This is everything we packed into our luggage, all of which arrived safely, with no breakages.


After landing in Birmingham and collecting our rental car, we headed to the retail appliance store to order a fridge that will fit into our 60cm (close to 2 feet) kitchen space. It will only arrive on Tuesday, so for now we're using our unheated garage as a cooler.


What a lovely view from my kitchen window as I wash dishes (note: no snow).
