Well, the house contents are all in boxes, and we are living out of suitcases for the next six weeks or so. Could be longer- as the stuff still sits in our house!
They packed us on Thursday and were supposed to load the container on Friday. But, it turns out that shippers are like airlines, and they overbook their containers, hoping that one or two will be cancelled. So, we are waiting for a container to become available, and feeling pretty helpless in the wait.
We have an option to pay more money and do a 'double load'. ie They load it onto a truck and then drive to LA and load it into a container there and then onto the ship. Don't really want to pay any more, but don't want to delay much more either.............urghh!
Fortunately, our innovative friends bought the kids some ice cream gift cards as a leaving present, so we are having great fun spending those, and watching the Disney channel, and splashing in the pool........hey, if our stuff is in suitcases we must be on holiday surely!!
