Saturday

The Avenida Adelaida house sale closed today (2pm Friday afternoon in Socorro). So that's over. We should get the final settlement check deposited in our US bank the middle of next week. It'll be interesting to see how long it takes to transfer the money here.

We looked at houses today, mostly in Epping and North Epping. Open houses are held on Saturdays with staggered times. With some planning and luck, you can make it to a reasonable number of the ones you want to see. We saw quite a few but none that were (a) in our price range and (b) that we liked enough to consider buying. We did see a fabulous house for A$998K. Perhaps I could work two jobs....

Our plan is to head out to the coast tomorrow, for some sea breezes and to reconnoitre. The traffic here in Sydney is pretty bad so I'd prefer to live close to ATNF if possible but we should at least look at the coast.

Going out to dinner tonight with an old friend from India. We'll probably go to the excellent eclectic Asian restaurant, Kenny's, in Epping. Judi and I went there for our anniversary dinner last October.
