The move into our new flat!

Saturday 25th Feb'12

The flat was actually the second flat we saw in Sydney, and we fell in love with it. It had 2 large bedrooms, 1 with en-suite (and dressing room), and an amazing open plan living/dining/kitchen area with outstanding views!! It comes with a large pool, sauna, jacuzzi, gym and has access to another larger gym and pool area too, plus tennis courts!!! A bit of a change from sleepy Wokingham... We couldn't quite believe it.

We immediately knew the flat location would be great as it is in Pyrmont, 5 minutes walk to Darling harbour, 23min walk to the main shopping centre/CBD and 4 minutes walk to the famous Sydney fish markets! Yummy!!

The move in the morning was a rather dis-organised affair as Sarah had a little hangover headache from the fiarwell BBQ and drinks do with Ro and Dan. We managed to plow through and move all the boxes and clothes up in the lift to the 11th floor without too much hassle.

Next came our deliveries of:
Sofa
Coffee tables x2
TV cabinet
Washing machine
Fridge/freezer
Bed and Mattress.

James had to pop out for a much needed hangover feed, whilst Sarah dealt with all the deliveries- which all turned up at once!! It was all was rather chaotic with 3 different delivery trucks at once!

Anyway, here is the end result: We obviously need a little more furniture ;)

Our Bedroom, dressing room and bathroom

The guest suite (yes, your more than welcome!!) However as you can see no bed... we have roll mats ;)

And finally: Our balcony:

Anyway, i'll leave you a view of our sunset on our first night:

And sunrise on our first morning:

Finally:

James started work with Appsense on Monday 27th Feb (and flew down to Melbourne), whilst Sarah awaited eagerly for the final offer pack from Google! She had got through 9 interviews, a review with the senior finance team and the senior exec review panel (with Larry Pages' signature ) was due on Monday 27th... Nearly there!!! :)
