Playdates and Progress

Today we had our first playdate here in London!  A wife of one of JJ's co-workers invited us over to play with her and their 2 year old son in Chelsea.  They moved here from California a few months ago and she had some great information about life here and suggestions for children's activities.  It was a great outing for us and nice to meet some friendly folks.  And our air shipment is finally expected to arrive tomorrow! So we will be at the flat in Hampstead all day to receive that and wait for the cable/internet hook up.  Then we plan to move into the flat over the course of the next week.  We will be living off only what is in our small air shipment since our sea shipment probably won't arrive for another few weeks but it will be so nice to have a bit more space and be in a more child-friendly area.  Also we have confirmed our travel to Italy next week!  JJ has some business in Milan so we are going with him next Wednesday and then headed to Cinque Terra (Monterosso - one of my favorite places on earth!) for the weekend. Reena - if you are reading this- it will bring back fond memories of our trip!

Apparently here it takes a few days to actually hook up the internet so I probably won't be blogging again until next week.  Have a great weekend everyone!

  1. Excited for your trip to Italy and the blog posts. P.S. You are a great blogger, maybe you can look into being a "expat" paid blogger. Who needs a job when you can just blog? LOVE YOU!
