So today the truck was supposed to be ready at 8am to start taking our stuff up to our new house. Well, in true Indonesian fashion, the truck was not ready and was still at the mechanic. "Could you wait until tomorrow?" they asked. Not really... Hugo is only given a certain number of days off, it really sucks to waste one of those. So our hero, Mike Brooks the base manager here, lined up another truck and things got rolling at around 11am. By about 2:30 they had all our stuff up to our house. So we've started unpacking... started being the optimal word here. Tomorrow we plan to go at it heavy. And hopefully tomorrow my washing machine will be installed and the little problems with the house, ie air conditioner that doesn't actually condition air, will be fixed.

Yeah! So glad to hear that you are finally in your new house! Hope you settle in soon. Sure it must feel like Christmas opening up boxes that you haven't seen for a while. Have fun!
