So, I have a video of the little tyke walking around, but You Tube is down at the moment, so I'll have to try to upload a video later. While you wait, here are some cute shots of the boy and some scenic shots of St. Andrews. We had a bit of a boiler problem last week.... had it fixed, had it broken, then had it fixed again, only to have it break down again a day and a half later. What a pain, but it seems to be mostly fixed at the moment. Anyhow, Friday night it was on the fritz, so we went to St. Andrews to stay with a friend over the weekend as we would have frozen in our apartment. We had a really nice time there. The village is so quaint and charming. Simon and Singer (that's our friend) were working on geology stuff in the morning while Marius and I took a stroll through the castle and nearby cathedral and cemetery. All are in ruins now, but still very cool to look at.
Our flat paperwork seems mostly done for the moment. I think our loan stuff is mostly taken care of too, although we haven't yet signed anything.... I'll have to call our solicitor and mortgage broker to double check though. We'll move in May 16th! Yeah!!!! First thing we're going to do it peek under the carpets to see if there are floorboards underneath worth sanding. Then we'll rent a sander and go to town before we move the boy in. It'll be a lot of hard work, but hopefully worth it in the end.

Hi robin, this is kyungsoo from delaware. I ran into your blog while googling for simon's new office number. Marius looks so cute!, and I liked many of great photos of Edinburgh. Good luck with your moving!
Hi Robin,
I came across your blog while searching for information regarding moving to Edinburgh. My husband and I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada and have two young boys. I would love some input from someone like yourself (mom, expat, wife) particularly regarding where to live, schools, etc. Would you consider corresponding via email so I can ask you some questions?
If so, please feel free to contact me at your convenience.
Hope to hear from you.
