Day One

Well, we made it to Taipei. The trip was wonderfully uneventful yet dreadfully long. I do not wish to get on another plane for a VERY long time.

We are staying in temporary housing until our ocean freighted crate gets here. Then, the real fun happens. We get to unload and unpack all of our stuff into our permanent apartment. The temporary place is nice and comfortable and we know a few people in the building already.

We are all extraordinarily tired but still able to get a few things done in the morning before jetlag really gets us. Today, we applied for our alien resident certificate and tomorrow we get to go visit our new and permanent home just a few blocks away from where we are staying now. We also get to pick our paint colors for the new place. Let's hope we pick something we like and can live with for a very long time.

Grandpa & I are out here in the woods, on a cool, sunny fall day, several thousand miles away, thinking of you all. Larry called this morning to let us know they heard from you, and that all is well - tired, but well! So glad to hear it. We look forward to your posts to keep us up to date.

Love, Gma Pat

Two classes of travel.....I love it love it.
We are so glad you made it in about the same shape as you did to the other place over yonder. That's a lot of flying hours as two adult individuals, you guy with two children.
We are grateful for your safe arrival.

p.s. I'll save a couple of brush pile for Jeff.
