Phew !!!!....just came up for air after a whirlwind couple of days....life sure has changed in such a short time...cant stop smiling
I waited in Perth Airport in 2 degree cold...most unusual for Perth...her flight landed at 6.25 am.
She walked out of Customs at 7.00 am and for both of us it was the most best feeling !!
Customs allowed her to bring in about 20 kilos of assorted Chinese Medicines (I think they all arrive weighed down with medicine, maybe they think we still use witchcraft here ?) The flight from Chengdu to Singapore was delayed by weather and she was worried that she might miss the connection to Perth, but she managed to get from Terminal 1 to Terminal 3 in Singapore and clear all the formalities in time.
The drive home was a blur...babbling away and feeling on top of the World. After so many visits to Chengdu, it was really good to see her on my home turf and to show off some of our beautiful City.
She immediately set to unpacking and putting away her stuff once we got home...the Chinese mind at work. For me, I would have just put my feet up and crashed for a few hours...but I got overuled, she insisted all clothing was neatly put away in its proper place and everything sorted...immediately...ho hum...lesson No. 1 for me !!!!
Then she dived in the shower and after the process went to the kitchen and made us a cup of tea !!!....just like she had been there forever...amazing !!!
Now we have begun the familiarisation process....all the gadgets in the home, how to work this and that and there are Chinese "post-it notes" all over the house...it is very charming
...as of yet, no laundry in the bathroom...but that will come I'm sure.!!
The Sun was getting through about lunchtime so she had a nap on the swing seat beside the Pool in the afternoon and I got time to get my breath back.
We had a lovely dinner together, I cooked Thai food which she loves and after we had a QQ session with friends and family in Chengdu, just to let them know that she arrived safely and was happy.
Sorry that my post is all about trivia guys, there are no major happenings or issues to report...at these early days it is just happiness all the way, just to be together in our own home, with no deadline looming like it always was in our previous times together.
This ,so far is all that I hoped and dreamed it could be.
Talk again soon
