Sure, it's a big change from Australia, but I find it has a certain charm.
Did you have a good trip? It's not too much of a shock between the good weather and the cooler, wetter weather? That's a big step you've taken there. For as long as I've known you (2 months, that's all haha), you've been talking about it. But I imagine it must also be a kind of relief to have arrived and moved on.
The flight is pretty arduous, but as good as can be expected, except for my board being smashed - more on that later! Yes, there's a HUGE relief!
Glad to hear it! So I wish you and your husband many happy new adventures!
