We have Stuff!

We are making progress on making our flat a bit more like our place with pictures, clothes, pans, and boxes everywhere.  The moving crew arrived just before 7:00am on Wednesday and did a great job.  They had to park the container down the street because they also started pouring the asphalt on the west side of our street as well.  The crew had to unload the container into a small truck and pull the truck into our landlords driveway. The poor guys!

It was hard because only one of the three spoke English, but the other two were very nice and were able to understand, "I'm not sure where that box goes" and "Can you take that (super heavy) box upstairs." It was also funny watching two of them and Chad put together the crib we received from the Eckerts.  It was quite the site and "I don't really know how this goes" look is clear in both in English and German. But they managed!

We were impressed with what a great job they did and everything was packed so well!  That is the way to move.  Now we'll spend more time unpacking, washing things off and trying to figure out how exactly we manage with a wardrobe and no closet. :)

We're off  to London on Saturday to hopefully see a couple of shows and some sites, so we'll see what we can get unpacked before we leave!  We're both excited to be in an English speaking Environment again. It will be more relaxing to do things like go to dinner or read Tube signs. It is a happy, sunny day!
