We should move in to our new home in less than two weeks now.  Everything is all organised from the Canadian side of things but we are still waiting for the RBS to finalise the share sale - it has taken them almost four months now!!  This means we haven't even yet been able to book our flights north - it's all a bit stressful.

The weather here has started to warm up though.  We had a fantastic day yesterday.  We went to a roadside orange grove near our house (Lise suggested it).  The children had great fun being trailed through the groves on a cart, tasting lots of different citrus fruits and picking some to take home.

The grove owner also has a bigger-than-monster-truck which he built himself from an old yellow school bus.  We went for a ride on it - saw more groves, fed oranges to the cows (wonder what that does to the milk...) and drove through the swamp.  It was absolutely brilliant fun and totally un-Disney-fied!

Here are some photos:
