A new chapter.

It is done! I have moved! Finally!! The dust is still settling.

This was by far the most complex move I've ever done (real estate is quite something else altogether). Things went very smooth  and the only damage was a broken flower pot. Driving away from the house was a heart wrenching moment but our flat is so much cozier and has the feel of a beach house to it which is a dream come true.
We have the Burrard Inlet with the park and pier and board walk (photo above) right in front of our door which is absolutely amazingly beautiful (if I could I would hang out there all day long). The magnificent mountains are just on the other side, too with some great hiking trails. So much beauty out there waiting to be explored!

Now, back to unpacking the boxes... Hey anyone up for a coffee?! Let's go, I'll meet you down at the pier in 8 minutes!  ;-)

Yep I'm up for a coffee, meet you there in 5 ;-)

Sounds like a lot of work to do now but I guess you will create a cosy nest!
