A feeling of achievement is travelling on your own and getting to your destination with no fuss or bother.

yes, of course i thought i could do it, but it's a nice feeling when thought becomes reality.

and it felt SO good to feel relaxed and un-worried, just letting things happen.

first item to be unpacked? the laptop. but then i didnt even get a chance to get near it because Zo now had a new toy to play with. can't believe i have a better windows than he has! eventually i got it back to sort some photos until it was again taken from my hands so he could play picasa. our laptops are now standing back-to-back and if we had a 'lazy susan' we wouldnt even have to get up and move to swop computers.

isnt it amazing how someone who hasnt even unpacked a case yet can explode all over a room? not if you are me - then it is just par for the course. it's a good thing i have to live out of my suitcase here, at least that minimizes the places to look for my stuff.

weather is pleasant and not too cold here. apparently cooling down a bit but i am very happy with that. i have to keep reminding myself it is going to get dark early. i am sure that is not going to stop anyone from going out.

time to make the contact phone calls now - then plan for the next few days
