From pre-Singapore: New House, stuff arrived

All-I realize this is WAY overdue.  As of late November, we have a new place.

We moved out of our apartment into a new one.  Basic reason is the old place had too much construction going on, and it was likely to go well into December.  There was an open apartment so Embassy relocated us so they could finish up the other place. 

So Friday (the Fri before Thanksgiving) we moved to a place that is much closer to work (5 minute walk) and actually bigger and better laid out.  We have a front garden area with a nice table and back courtyard as well.  There is also tons of storage.  It is an older place, which means it is a bit sturdier and has a lot more character.  Hopefully we will be able to fix it up nicely, including the stairway to nowhere.  I am calling it our tribute to Alaska, but we love it.  You'll see once we get unpacked and get pictures up.  This is still a work in progress.

There are a few pictures to include on the blog and that is from the stuff we unpacked.  Most of our things arrived here unharmed.  We lost one piece of art.  Otherwise a bit of scratching here and there and a bit more wear to a couple cushions.  Could have been a lot worse.

A few pics:

Getting the couch in took about one and a half hours. 

Unloading the truck

Proof they pack everything.  My coffee from day of pack out.
