Well after much stressing (mostly on Kristens part \ud83d\ude42 ) it looks like we’re getting the place.\u00c2\u00a0 We still have a bit of waiting until the rental agents can contact the current residents and workout a exit\/entry time.\u00c2\u00a0 We really are hoping everything can happen this Monday, that way Kristen can relax and get ready for her orientation on Tuesday and Wednesday.\u00c2\u00a0 We also need to extend the car rental so we can run around and furnish during the week.\u00c2\u00a0 We hope to get our own car after the house is delt with.<\/p>\n\n
On the other hand, to kill time today we drove around to look at some alternatives (some were REALLY nice), we drove out the the Spit (a break between the bay and the ocean) where I’ve heard there’s some really nice fish reefs, then we headed over to Surfers Paradise for the first time to actually see the beach…….OMG….I want to move here!\u00c2\u00a0 It was beautiful, unlimited beach (miles and miles and miles) of pure powder sand, deep blue ocean and the best surfing waves I’ve seen.\u00c2\u00a0 I no longer worry about possibly being bored.\u00c2\u00a0 Infact, the only worries I forsee are sharks and sunburn :). ( I cant wait until we have a place so I can have my scuba gear sent from the states)<\/p>\n\n
Kristen was looking at the weather in Alameda (it was something in the low 40’s F) but I think we both are slowly getting used to the temp (28-30C).\u00c2\u00a0 Rightnow I’m looking at a totally useless bunch of clothes that we thought we might need (jeans, windbreakers, etc).\u00c2\u00a0 Maybe the winter might help.\u00c2\u00a0 We also found out that this is the raining season, which is kinda cool, wet but warm rain is fun to play in, especially when it\u00c2\u00a0dries out about 20min after the clouds clear.\u00c2\u00a0 There have been a few nights now that I’ve woken to a complete downpour that seemed to come out of nowhere.\u00c2\u00a0 I figure another 2 weeks and we’ll be acclimated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
