Moving to New Zealand

For those who don’t know, the countdown has started for our move to Auckland, New Zealand.

Mama has already officially quit her job, and we are now a no-income family.

Our cats will depart first.  They are scheduled to be picked up and moved to Hong Kong quarantine on the 6th of November.  They will stay in Hong Kong for six months, before moving to New Zealand and staying in quarantine there for another two weeks.

We have booked our one-way flights, and we leave Guangzhou on the 12th of November.

Until then, we will be flat out (like lizards drinking) continuing to box our belongings.  (One of the hugely helpful things that my parents did while here in Guangzhou was to get us started with the packing.)  Sometime shortly after the cats leave, we aim for a truck to come and pick up our stuff and deliver it to a shipping container, which will hopefully carry everything safely to New Zealand.  With any luck, we will start to unpack in our New Zealand home before Christmas.


All this means that I will not be posting much (if anything) on this blog for the next couple of months.
