Moving time

A few days ago, we signed the lease for our new apartment. We took the kitties into the living room to get them used to it. They weren’t happy. Jasper refused to detach himself from his humans (he gave Karin some awful scratches). Ziva refused to leave her cat carrier.

When we took them into a bedroom, they were a little less fearful. They walked in circles, sniffing the carpet.

At our old place, nearly everything is packed up. We’ve recruited some eight or ten volunteers to help us to move tomorrow. Rain is expected during the move. The weather app on my phone is telling me to watch out for flash flooding.

Though our new apartment is across the street from the river, I’m not worried.

Meanwhile, there’s been awful flooding in Ecuador – even in Quito, which usually isn’t terribly affected.


(Some streets in this video are quite near to where I used to live.)

The floods have been much more damaging in the countryside, of course; and Peru also has been flooded.
