It has been a hectic few weeks. Each day brings new information and one thing to put on our "TO DO" list or our "Don't forget to...." list. Yesterday and today Dustin and I went downtown to our cultural orientation for Perth. Luckily, we found MANY similarities between the Aussies and ourselves. A nice difference is the slowed down pace of life. It was mentioned several times that they work hard and play hard, and the a work / life balance is stressed. I am looking forward to that. We did learn that they too like to barbque and enjoy a few beverages on the weekend....we should fit in just fine ;)
They gave us good tips on cheaper flights, the best route to take to come visit (hint hint), and cheap ways to call to America. Do not be surprised if you get a phone call at 3 in the morning from me....I just may forget the time difference when I want to tell you a funny story!!!
Tomorrow we have our medical exams for the family...wish us luck and pray that I do not have to get an armful of immunizations!!!!
Also we have been talking to two realators about listing our house....we will begin that process in about a month. Dustin is excited because we are having to declutter our house and really start thinking about what we will take and what will stay. I see a MASSIVE garage sale in our near future :)
Hugs to all!
