Moving Day, Bubbles & Boredom
We've moved out from our apartment and currently homeless :-). I'm feeling as if I have not been sleeping for days with what's going on around us at the moment. Currently, I'm writing this from our hotel room, which we just got into last night at almost 11.30pm. I'll tell you about it in the next post. As for now, enjoy some pictures I took on the moving day.
The movers did a pretty good job. Friendly people. It took several hours to complete the whole thing. What's not fun was to wait for the whole thing to finish and to keep an eye on the kids at the same time and make sure they're not in the way.
And all sorts of faces.
2 brothers playing together.
And their many antics.
Almost done
I got to talk to this nice old lady for awhile at our balcony while waiting for the movers to finish packing. I hardly talked to anybody there just because ...ehem..I'm shy. But if anybody were to come and talk to me, I would definitely talk to them :-). So this lady, who is a Filipina, first came to this island 14 years ago with her 4 daughters and now that the daughters are all married and have their own lives, she said it's time for her to go home and spend the rest of her life there.

What's left
And turning over a new leaf with our move.

Our House
This is our previous apartment. It's pretty small for five people but it's easier to manage. It has 2 bedroom, one bathroom - the whole area is probably around 650 - 700 sq ft and it has coin-operated washers and dryers on each floor. What I like about it is that it's a low rise apartment (only 3 floors) so it's pretty convenient to get down to the car plus it's inexpensive.
This is one of the mountains, it's greener now since it has been raining
lately. That's where the kids' school is situated, it takes less than 5
minutes to get there by car.
And this is on the left side. And the boys love the pools!
