So, we've been at the house for a little over a week and we love it! I guess we haven't been away from Newcastle long enough to miss the buzz of the big city, but so far so good. It's great to finally have some space, especially outside with a patio, a balcony and a yard. The yard is pretty wild though and has probably been rejected for a while. We attempted to do some gardening yesterday (whilst being terrified with the prospect of a snake encounter) and got it cleaned up a bit, but there are still loads of dead branches and leaves everywhere... I guess we'll have to do a little bit at a time. Our weekends will now be busy with things like cleaning the garage door, sweeping the patio and collecting dead branches:)
It hasn't been all work and no fun this past week. We went down to the Marina the other day here in Nelson Bay and had a nice dinner, and on Friday night we drove down to Newcastle to meet up with our friends for dinner and then stayed the night at Quintin and Sal's place. It's only a 45 min drive to Newcastle if we feel the need for some city life. Nelson Bay is pretty nice though, with small shops and boutiques and some nice restaurants by the Marina.
