YAY! We're MOVING!

We just so happened to be checking out a friend's washing machine the other day since ours is a complete dud. After closing the deal to buy their machine, they jokingly asked if we wanted to move into the place under them. We've spent plenty of time in this particular "village" at another friend's place, and I have always imagined this as the place I would want to live in Manaus. Unfortunately for us, when we moved here several months ago, there was nothing available. But now, in less than a week, we will be trading our nice but noisy casa for a nicer, safer, calmer, and bigger casa!!! With plenty of built-in friends in the same complex!

We still need to get all the details ironed-out with the actual moving, disassembling of things, reassembling of things, and all that stuff, but we are both so happy!! Once everything is all settled, I will put up some pics for you all to see.
Oh, and now we don't have to worry about moving that washing machine!
