Moving in!

We moved into our new apartment on October 4th.  We were basically still at the apartment since we have no furniture and our Pod from Tulsa had not arrived yet.  There was a delay in paperwork - very annoying! In the meantime, new door mat for our new Happy Place!

By the way, the Graham and Charlie are insisting on sitting in these large shopping carts.  Welcome back to the United States. Ha ha!

The gym is equipped with TRX bands. I will need to familiarize myself with these - eventually :-P

There is a spinning bike too! And the room has a TV that can be connected to various workout programs. Looks like fun!  Eventually...

The boys run around the new apartment and after a few hours their feet are filthy!!!  Already noted the management.  The apartment has been newly renovated and obviously the floors were not cleaned properly.  YUCK!

I am loving the new large stainless steel sink.  All the appliances are new too. YAY!!!

We have discovered that there are two ways to get home to our new apartment.  This one is downhill from the other side of the hill.  View is spectacular but the constant braking can be quite tedious!

Look what we saw one day coming home!  A hawk with his lunch (a rabbit):

Welcome home! On a clear day, you can see Catalina island on the horizon.

The only thing about this place is there is no air conditioning!  Seems that if you are a certain number of miles away from the coast, air conditioning is not required.  Thankfully there is mostly a nice breeze from the ocean. Although we have had to buy a few fans just to drown out the noise from the pool during sleep time!
