Home Again (kind of)
|
We moved house (again) on Monday. We are now back in Christchurch, NZ, after six months in Australia. The transition back has been extended - a week on the road from NSW to QLD, then a week at Noosa catching up with family. Our arrival into Christchurch at midnight followed a very stressful flight (particularly the check in with 100kg plus of luggage!). Over the last few weeks we've been in various holiday homes, and now, we have a furnished house in the country for the next 6 months. Lots of change, challenge and frustration. I am so over packing!! We are all missing being close to Dad and Pat (my step-mum) but it is also glorious to be back in NZ - no redback spiders in the laundry - no cockroaches in the kitchen, and a large garden for the children to play in. We are on a 5 acre block, with a fenced garden of about 1/2 an acre. Very nice! Autumn is here with warm days and cooler nights. The trees are changing colour and losing leaves - its soothing to be in a cooler climate. We have a friendly rabbit who has visited our garden for the last few days - he looks a lot like Peter Rabbit (without the jacket of course). Will write more later. |
