We left Molde on January 30 at around 6.30 pm. We planned to leave just after lunch, but the moving company came way too late. Because of the long distance between Molde and Arendal, we had to stop at Hamar, half way between and stayed one night in a hotel. We continued our journey early after breakfast and arrived at Arendal around 3 pm.. It was a 12 hour drive in total and it wasn’t easy with a baby.. I had to sit with her at the back and entertained her by playing with her or giving her a different toy at every 5 minutes or so 🙂
So, here we are.. in a new place meeting new people. We are currently living in a rented apartment in Nedenes while waiting for our new house to be ready. Nedenes is a small town about 10 km from Arendal city centre. The apartment is new, so it’s quite okay.
The view from our window.. not as nice as the one in Molde of course.. 😦
On our first night here.. we slept in the living room because there was no heater in the bedrooms, and it would take a couple of days to properly heat the whole apartment. The apartment was partly furnished so we thought it was okay to move in right away instead of staying one more night in a hotel, as our belongings would not be delivered to us until the next day.
Since we would be living here only for 5 or 6 mos, we stored most of our stuffs in one of the bedrooms and just took out the ones that we really need to survive the next few months. After finishing packing, I realised that we did have a lot of things to bring along.. how did two people accumulate so many… my goodness!
Baby K among the boxes, she looks so tiny 😀
Wishing everyone a very happy V day 😀
Last time, we were blueberry picking, now we are cherry and raspberry picking. Well, I think this is one of the nice things about living in Norway. Those berries and cherries are really every where in the bushes during summer… bener2 gemes dee!!
