 The last couple of days were very sunny and beautiful. Last night we had a last meal with our friends and we sat outside till midnight. Very unusual for Aberdeen and a great way to say goodbye to the Granite city. On Monday and Tuesday the removal company came and 3 men packed everything up in 217 boxes. Today, they loaded everything in a big lorry and if all goes well we will see our things back in about 12 weeks. Frank and Willem both said goodbye to their friends and teachers at nursery. They seem to cope very well with it all. Guess they are still young and flexible! We spent quite a few hours cleaning and sorting the place out. On Saturday a lady will move in with her daughter. It's good we were able to find a tenant so quickly. Tomorrow morning the 3rd and last continental breakfast buffet in Skene House where we are staying and then we'll drive down to England for a last weekend with Jamie's family. I will miss Aberdeen and Scotland a lot. Our friends, the fact you can walk everywhere, the short drive to beautiful wilderness, some of the great bars and restaurants and the music venues. Seven years is a long time and it's been an important time. We bought a house, got married, had two lovely boys...But I am also really looking forward to our new adventure. It's the right time to do it!
