After a long long wait, our stuff has finally arrived at our apartment. Most of the boxes where opened by Quarantine officials, but because we packed carefully and according to their instructions, the shipment was cleared without impediments.
We were happy to be able to sleep in our own bed, and finally have a TV. The best thing was to have our Nespresso coffee machine again.
Here are the details of the shipment:
- Pick-up in Amsterdam: 4th September
- Departure from the port of Rotterdam: 29th September
- Arrival in Sydney; 11th November
- Customs Clearance: 19th November
- Quarantine Clearance: 6th December
- Delivery in Sydney: 10th December
So it took 98 days to travel 16.000km, that's less then 7km/hr.

Only half of the time was actually spent at sea... the rest was red tape. Nice :-)
you could almost have walked it there.... Oh, there's that ocean... ;)
