Mission Accomplished!!!

So it happened quicker than I thought! I found a house in Auckland... in the Albany area. So this week I'll sort out a few things in preparation of our move, visit Starship and introduce myself and get a few things ready for Bianca's birthday party this coming Sunday. She still doesn't know she will be having a birthday party and we will only tell her on the day when we are 100% sure it will definitely happen.

This morning I visited the Forrest Hill Presbyterian Church and it was good to see some of the familiar faces again. We used to go to this church when we lived in Auckland before.

Then my friend Irene, whom I am staying with in Auckland at the moment, took me on a bit of a sightseeing drive a little bit north out of Auckland. It was country-side and so beautiful. We visited a rather dubious pub / restaurant thinking we'd get something to eat. Of course it looked okay on the outside until we were inside, ordered and then sat down. So we ate pretty quickly and left.

All in all, it was just a fun Sunday afternoon outing.

I miss Terence and the girls terribly and can't wait to see them all again. But at least now I have the peace of mind that we have somewhere to live when we move up to Auckland middle June.

That's great news Lea. Albany is a really nice area. It must be a load off your mind to have a place sorted.
I just read Terences update and was amazed at him waking the girls at 8 am. What incredible sleepers you must have.
I hope you all have a great day.
take care,
Bridget
