Yeah!

We're in our new house, and this blog is made there with our wireless network.

The painters thought they were finished Friday morning, but they did not clear all the paint of the windows and did not paint the staff-toilet. They spent most of Saturday what looked like hanging around. They still not finished!

Meanwhile Friday morning I got a call that the car is at customs. This went in an African way, so it took ages. At the embassy there was a car, but no key, finally found a spare key. Went to the customs, the removal man talked to a man who had to find a supervisor. After a while the supervisor came with a big man with a cutter. After checking the seal number three times they cut open the container. And yes our brand new car was there, dirty but beautiful. The car is now at their 'parking lot' until the papers are sorted, this takes 1 to 2 weeks (depending on peoples mood, if the printer works etc.)

By the time we had a late lunch the movers came. Lots of men so it went fast, half our stuff arrived. This was actually convenient so we could arrange things and make sure the next lot on Saturday could fit. Saturday morning there was a smaller crew and a smaller shipment. Still not everything is there yet, the rest will follow on Monday. We're still missing: table (got the legs), one of the sofas Some kitchenware. We have now: LOTS of wine, can survive a century, some more stock which we had to buy in bulk, like cookies.

Of to wash and do some shopping.
