Furniture arrived!

The past week has been very busy again. But for a good reason: our furniture has finally arrived! One week ago, on Sunday, the moving company 'Asian tigers' came with a crew of eight to our house. They unloaded the container, put all the boxes in the right rooms, and helped us installing some shelves and closets. On Sunday, they were busy all day, and on Monday during the morning as well. After that, they went back to Guangzhou (by bus!!) and with that, for us, the moving had been completed! All in all, the whole moving took 62 days: 2 days packing in Warburg, 32 days on the way from Warburg to Fuzhou, around 26 days for paperwork and customs clearance (including some delay due to the Xmas holidays), and 2 days unpacking in Fuzhou.

Needless to say we are very happy to finally have our belongings with us again. Most of the stuff was transfered without damage, but sadly, some of our favourite pieces did not make it unharmed. Nothing really serious, though.

I will add some pictures to this post, when I find the time.

Update
On the day our furniture arrived in Fuzhou, I made a few recordings of the moving activities. Here's a short summary of it. It's quite nice to see Shiqi, directing the movers, and Mylène observing the scene carefully. Also note the shoes that the movers politely took off on this rainy day.
