Back to civilisation
After more than a week in the "no internet" wilderness, I am glad to be back to civilisation and connection with the rest of the world.
So what has happened over the last 10 days? Well, we have had a good and safe journey. Just a word of advice for anyone flying Air Asia, don't bother to purchase any inflight meals, just buy the instant noodle.
Anyway, the first thing that hit us when we arrived was the Cold. It is still very cold here, with the howling wind and drizzle all day long.
The children started school. We spent a week getting things done - medicare, driver licence, furnishing the house etc etc.
The house looks slightly better than before - it was totally empty. We live a bit far off town, so without a car it is really impossible to get around. Thank God that my cousin's husband lends us a car to get around.
School here is different, the kids are still getting use to the system and the culture.

Glad you are all more or less settled in.
Seriously, remember about the Dog and Lemon Guide before buying a used car. Was showing some of my friends here (unbelievers :-) )... and they are now beleivers as the description of the things that have gone wrong with their cars are spot on!!
e-mail me and I can scan and send you the relvant sections of any car you are interested in getting :-) No guarantees of course with used cars but it sure does reduce the chances of future incoveniences and expenses.
