Moving Time

Hands up everyone who likes moving house!

Hmm.. no takers. Not surprising really.  It's not much fun, especially when you have a 3 hour road trip and then have to unpack the trucks at the end of the day, although unpacking was surprisingly easy.

As we moved our things out Kt lost no time in rearranging the lounge at home.


We had lots of willing helpers to load the truck.  Dad was working the lift on the back and needed a hat, so we gave him the one we bought in Longreach.  It was going to be his Christmas present, but he needed one now.  My Dad is very handsome!



Starting to load the truck.


Nearly done.


Once the truck was loaded we all went into the air conditioning to cool down.  Kz showed us her new dress.  She is so annoyed at having to wear a dress.  But it is such a pretty one.


Mum and Dad gave us each a bowl of fruit to have in the car.  It was really cool and refreshing.  Thanks folks.


We had a good trip up.  It took a bit longer than our normal trip in a car because the roads are very bumpy and winding in places.  We were very relieved to arrive at Gayndah about 4.45pm.  Esther and Christian helped us unload the truck.  They think we travel light!

My first task was to put the bed together so we could fall into it.


And then straighten up the lounge so we could have somewhere to sit.


So we are getting there.  We all had chinese takeaways because there is not much choice in a small town.  We were very hungry and pleased to have it.  Esther and Christian started going through some of the things we needed to know but we were too tired to take it all in. 

It was still very hot, but we fell asleep quite quickly.  Today, the sun is shining, it will be another hot one and R has to drive the hire truck back to the Sunny Coast and pick up our car.  He is making a list of things we need.  Like fly spray for that pesky mosquito.

Thanks for reading my blog.  I hope you all have a very good week.

Bye for now
