...And The Movers Go!

Moving rather slowly, Todd supervised the movers on Friday morning while Steph took her last day of (U.S.) work. Luckily I had received our new Dell home laptop computer and accessories on Thursday, that is, six days after paying $50 for expedited two-day service (Dell's India-based customer service rep later agreed to refund the money, no complaints from me), just in time for the movers to pack most of it away. As I thanked the very professional MI Group movers and signed the documents for the 114 items soon to be shipped to the port in Savannah to arrive later in Rotterdam and finally Zurich, my younger brother Trent arrived from Madison in time for a late lunch.

Steph enjoyed her after-work going away party in typical style, complete with complementary wine from the Food & Beverage Dept. and gourmet catering by Fox & Obel in the Hyatt boardroom. Now without furniture and therefore moving in temporarily with our amazingly gracious upstairs neighbor Gayle, Steph and I later went to dinner with Trent and wife Amy at local Guatemalan restaurant El Tinajon for dinner.
