In which Tori arrives in Adelaide

Wednesday and Thursday were the big days for travelling. On Wednesday Mum and I set off for Devonport and arrived at about 2:30 / 3pm so had a long wait before the gates opened for the ferry at 5:30pm. So we watched a movie (Nim's Island) and played snap to waste away a few hours. Once on the boat I realised that Scott from my EIA class (and problem solving group) was also on the ferry along with his partner and their dog. The ferry trip was uneventful and we arrived in Melbourne at around 6am. We were the first ones off the ship and made good time all the way back to Kersbrook.
As we drove up our driveway Twistie came over to say hi. She neighed and let me pat her nose before she remembered that she was grumpy with me for leaving her and putting her in a truck and she turned away and walked off.
The three puppies were excited to see me and Gretta was all smiles as was I.
Yesterday was filled with unpacking some of the boxes from my float and trying to set my room in order before today (being our christmas party). So this morning I have to move some boxes out of my room and into the play room so that my room looks neat and tidy.
Ahh Charlie is a wake and ringing his little bell. I better go and get him up.

Glad you arrived safely. I'm about to go up to Mum and Dad's for our absolutely Crazy Christmas. I'll blog about it later.
