The Adventure Has Begun

So here I am, sitting in my new, old house in Melbourne, feeling rather chilled as it is quite a cool day today. It's cool like May weather in Queensland. The adventure has well and truly begun. It began with a two day trip in the car with the kids, by myself. I survived! They behaved very well considering they were stuck in car seats for two days straight. I was very proud of them.
We have been here for a week now and we are settling into life here in this big city. I am still unpacking and should really be putting things away now, but I thought I would update my blog instead. The unpacking can wait a few more minutes.
I love our little house here. It is a renovated 1960's home. Quite small in comparison to our last home, but that's ok. There's a large shed out the back to store things that I can't fit in. I rather like not having room for too much stuff.
Angel has started school and has settled in very quickly. She's just that kind of child. Monkey loves the backyard as there is a concrete path all the way from the shed to the back patio that he zooms down on his scooter.
Once I have finished unpacking and the house is in order I will be free to start exploring Melbourne with Monkey in tow. What I have seen so far I really do like. I still haven't gone out for a coffee yet, so that will be number one on the list. Hopefully next week the exploring will begin. I will keep you up to date. Meanwhile, have a lovely day!
