We were just leaving the mall when we received the call on Saturday that the trucking coming was on the way with our container. It was a few hours later, close to dusk, when they arrived. There were six men with the trucking company, and it took all of them, most of the guards, some men from the provast and Chris and I upstairs holding our breath to get that truck backed into the appropriate place for unloading.
It was frightening to watch and with some pretty close calls but at the end of the day, we had our things in the flat and everyone went home. We have been sleeping on a rock hard bed since we have been in the flat so we had one and only one goal; to setup and make up our bed and get in it. Best night's sleep we have had in ages. Every night now, if feels luxurious to climb between the sheets. It is amazing to us how much we took for granted before. There is a great lesson for us here everyday in our daily life here.
Ciao!
Chris & Donnie
