Things Have Arrived

This past week has been disaster-recovery work.
I’m starting to realize how little storage there is in our place.
Moved In (Sort-of)
We’ve moved in – sort-of. Our new place, the main floor of a monstrous war-time mansion in Kitsilano, currently has no furniture, making the window bench a particularly nice feature. Our stuff – a great deal of not-yet-used Wedding presents and a couple pieces of furniture – should arrive on Thursday, so I’m trying to enjoy the sparse minimal look while I can: the crazy box-filled mess is coming…
Although our 6-month cruise ship contract was an adventure, neither of us have any interest in doing another contract.
The past 2 months we’ve been busy finding this place while living in a furnished condo in North Vancouver. Things are coming together really nicely, and after a few years away being in Vancouver feels fantastic – our place is a short walk from the beach, boutique cafes, and record shops – Vancouver captures what we love about New Zealand with (in my opinion) the best Canada has to offer.
