Day 0
So the day has finally come to leave Sydney after 6 fun filled years. It feels a little anti climactic having been away all summer (or winter depending on which hemisphere your reading this from).
we waved goodbye to all my belongings this morning and had a beautiful lunch at blathers one last time....... I had been hoping for some potato rosti but the breakfast menu was finished :( thanks to all the girls, especially Jaimee, for popping out to see me off.
We managed to get away early (WHAT??!!! I hear you all cry!). I'm now lazing on the balcony in Wollongong listening to the sound of the pacific ocean. We thought we would treat ourselves to a hotel with a few amenities before setting off on the camping expedition (needless to say this was my idea - but Dad is secretly happy about it).
we only had a few hiccups today.... The removal guys were 2 hours late and I had quite a lot of 'extra' stuff but the driver was super nice so that made up for it. The electricity company was way more efficient than I was planning and the electricity went off in the middle of the cleaning but all in it hasn't been the worst move - though my stuff still has to make it to Perth! They actually put it on a train and send it by rail - I thought everything went by road.
ok we are off for dinner.....bye for now x
P.s. Did I mention yesterday dad brought a Scottish flag with him? I'm not entirely sure how this is going to come in useful but I'm open to ideas??
