Moving

The movers are gone, and so is all our stuff, except for the small mountain of suitcases we have upstairs to take on the plane. These guys were very efficient, two days and they are done, and that includes taking an hour lunch break and stopping to pray every few hours. I was impressed, I didn't think I would be. Almost everything got wrapped in paper, and either boxed, wrapped in bubble wrap, or a combination of the two! They built boxes for things like Gregs grill and the rockers... I am glad that it is over, I am tired out, all that supervising running after Lily and Oliver, who were being watched by Chari most of the time, I only showed up to feed Oliver! It was great not to have to worry about them.
I had a wonderful going away coffee this morning, and like I said then, I don't think I am going to miss Saudi, but I am going to definitely miss my friends. Friends are what makes this place bearable, because all you have here is friends and shopping, and the shopping you have to do around prayer times!

Lily and her Daddy (with her Mum and Oliver in the background) We are waiting for the movers to show up

Greg took this cute picture of Oliver

Greg and his grill, like the pack job!

They had to pack the boxes on little trucks and take them out of the compound and then load them onto the big truck

They really load up the trucks
