Abu Dhabi Home


Our move to Abu Dhabi was quite stressful. It included many trips to the bank for Bruce, coordination of movers, cleaners, and appliance delivery, and me wanting to throw the resident "handy man" out of our villa. 
We ended up getting a HUGE place but it is a wee bit out of town. It is a brand new mansion built for 1 family, but subdivided for 7 (in a hurry I might add). We have the lower left side of the villa. Nice  neighbours so far...

Highlights of the house include:
- blue mood lighting
- kitchen cupboards that will collapse at any moment
- windows that leak
-  patio...woo hoo
- nice spacious rooms
- having a light that will randomly turn on and off because it is wired to another switch that is in the main hallway to go to the upstairs homes. 
- I could go on...

Regardless (or irregardless for some of you :) ) we are really happy to have found a place to live as housing is very limited right now. We are also thrilled to have unpacked all of our own stuff. Feels much more like a home. Now we have to get internet capabilities...


Happy moving fella that was quite proud of his truck.
