Settling In

We're pretty much unpacked, and most of the things have been put away. There are still some decor items like pictures to hang, etc. but it looks and feels like home here now.

It's kind of funny that no matter where you live, things don't change too much. Dinner still has to be cooked, the laundry done, floors cleaned, kids taken care of, etc, etc, etc (and etc.) So we still go about our normal routines here, but the thing that is different is that everywhere you look, normal life has this backdrop of tropical beauty. Driving towards lush mountains makes even a mundane trip to the grocery store more intriguing. The people we have met so far also are very warm and friendly. Hawaii has a lovely, easygoing culture here and so far we are really enjoying it.
