If you haven't heard, we're in the process of moving home! We just couldn't miss out on yet another Penticton summer. Our last day of work will be August 14th, and I'm looking at plane tickets for August 22nd.
When we made the big decision a few weeks ago we had mixed feelings about leaving Australia but as the end draws closer we're feeling more and more excited. There are things about Australia I'll miss. Obviously the Queensland Kroegers, our church, friends, the beach, espresso, cafes, our jobs, my doctor, etc.... But the thought of seeing our family and friends again trumps it all.
There are a few logistics that need to be ironed out in the next month. I still need to purchase the actual flight and we have to sell our copious amounts of stuff. We posted some pictures online Sunday and made our first sale tonight. We met up with a young Danish guy at Strathfield train station and did a sketchy back of the car transaction. He was unfortunately unfamiliar with the town in which my father was born which cost him a Danish discount. I'm most concerned about selling our car and bikes but I'm hoping that 4 weeks will be sufficient. It would also be fantastic to sell our camping equipment because we have a lot of it and its quite nice. Winter just isn't the best time to sell it. That being said, we DID just sell a surf board. Maybe a Danish person will buy all our gear.
Tomorrow is my day off so I'll be cleaning the car and posting pictures of it. Ideally we wouldn't sell it for at least 2 weeks since I'm still using it but we can't wait too last minute on it either.
