Our apartment was absolutely amazing with 3 sides of the apartment facing the ocean. We didn't spend much time there though. Dan had us on the move right away. We ate lunch at a little cafe right by our apartment, $41 Aus. We had 2 hambergers 3 drinks and a side of chips. We call them french fries in America. They must like the French either. After that, we decided to find a grocery store for the rest of stay down there. Our goal for the first night was to have everyone stay up until 6:30. Sounds early but we were exhausted.
Thursday we had appointments all day. Starting with visiting Dan's new office, then off to pick out furniture. This took a while. Dan was nice enough to get Mcdonalds for us because the kids were fading quickly. The one thing that Mcdonalds does over here is serve Shrek pasta as one of the meals. We met with St. Peters Lutheran College...it was amazing. Dan pulled through with both the house and the school.
Friday was another very busy day. I got to watch the sun come up over the ocean while going on a run on the beach. It was breath taking. When I got back, Dan had taken the kids to get breakfast which consisted of pancakes with a side of ice cream and some drinks ($60). This is a normal thing I'm finding out here. The children don't seem to mind either. We packed the remainder of the bags and started heading for our new home at:
3 Melaleuca Crescent
Sinnamon Park, Queensland 4073
Australia
Here are a few pictures at the park while we stayed at the Gold Coast...it was a great way to keep them awake during the day.

Angie and Fam.--What a wonderful way to share your time in Austrailia. Everyone looks so happy and that makes us happy. Seems different to see Dan on the wrong side of the car (or right side)? Can hardly wait for the next set of adventure pictures. Keep up the Awesome work. Hi to all Love mema
Hi to all! Thank you so much for making a blog spot. I love the pictures and cried just like "mother" when I saw it. I really think I am my "mother". Ava LOVED it. She wanted to know when she could go to "that parkee" with Kirsh and Paige and if she could jump into the computer. I had to tell her no. Love you all Boots!
Dan & Angie & fam,
This is awesome! I'm so glad you are sharing with us because we are so interested. Great website and pictures. I'm headed to G&G Leibfried's after work and will set it up as a favorite so you know they will be checking it all the time. Tell Christian and Paige their aunts, uncles & cousins are all interested in their new home, school and adventures.
Love, Peggy
