| Taking a break during packing |
It’s been a very busy week of farewells, finalising the house for rent and other domestic chores. There have been grumpy moments for sure and lots of last minute dog cuddles. My best friend Meegs kindly homed us for the past few days and she has been a trooper at taking all our leftover groceries, and tin soups - well some of them!!
Staying in a hotel tonight to chill out and
prepare for the long flights to Washington. We miss the dogs terribly and can’t wait to see them on the other side in a month or so.
All our friends have been extremely kind and generous with their farewells and
giving us the spoilt treatment.
We even arrived at the hotel and after 10mins of faffing around to get settled, I asked Deb who gave her the bag (a red gift bag on the desk). She said it wasn't her bag? I thought it was yours? Hmm, well it's not mine.
Put my glasses on and saw the personal sticky name label of our friends - holy Cadbury's Batman, it was full of chocolates and they had it delivered to our room. Thanks J&M :) With Meegs' Chomp bars and leather gloves, and the wooly socks from our neighbours, the gorgeous Canberra coasters and lovely vouchers for a restaurant in DC and an 'experience' in DC - we are ready for Washington. I have a sentimental US 1cent and a other great gifts to get us safely to the US.

We leave in the morning and fly to Syd-LA-Wash so it's worse than any 24 solo could ever be.
Thanks again for making us feel very loved, we'll miss you all and will be back in touch again from the land of 50 States.
