It is an extremely crazy and busy time for us right now but exciting at the same time and impossible to keep everyone up to speed on our plans and dates etc so let me get the formalities out of the way first!
Timeline and plans until departure:
- Our shipping container is leaving for Dubai on Friday 26th August (Yes, that is this Friday and I am freaking out). We are going to continue to live in our home until 22nd September, not sure if living is the right description I think it will be more like camping!
- I am continuing to work until the 20th September in Melbourne and will then be taking leave until I start in Dubai. Naz is working up until th 24th September (no, just realised we will need to look at that one because I think we have a special nephew's birthday party!)
- We will be staying with my Mum and Dad from the 22nd until we depart on Thursday 29th September!
- We have then allowed ourselves 1 week to find a house and move in before I start work on the 9th October (Yup a Sunday! The United Arab Emirates (UAE) week is Sunday to Thursday)
- Don't worry we haven't forgotten the dog - Lily will be flying over to join us from late October
Piper is very excited although she thinks life will be one big holiday and is convinved her days are going to be spent on waterslides, shopping at Dubai Mall and watching the fishes and sharks at the aquarium!
Ok I best get back to the packing..... our home is looking a little like this at the moment
Hoepfully you enjoy our stories and photographs and this blog closes the distance a little over the next 2 years - but this blog is in no way a substitute for not taking a holiday to Dubai to come stay with us. We are moving into an area close to the beach, 5 minutes from the world's largest shopping Mall and close to all the main attractions. We will have spare rooms so our home is open to all!
