Our New Home

Last Wednesday, we officially made 8 Clacton Road our home.  We have settled in and are enjoying the space.  The other day, Josh came up to me and said "Now it feels like Singapore is our home".  I agree.  It's funny how there is a sense of comfort with the familiarity of one's own belongings.

Our home is at the end of a quiet street and all amenities are within walking distance
- 12 mins: School
- 15-20 mins: Main shopping area/grocery store
- 15-20 mins: Restaurants
- 15-20 mins: Mall
- 12 mins: Pub serving cold beer!  Bar Bar Black Sheep

Here are some shots of our home.

Side note: Today was the first day of school for the boys - they were so excited to go back to school!
