From the email I sent out to everyone saying that we arrived safe and sound:
Our apartment is pretty good. Things are slowly coming together. There are a few minor glitches that we are trying to get taken care of but, other than that, I think that things will work out nicely. We're not totally fluent on how to use all of our appliances yet but hopefully that will come without too many disasters as time goes on. The good news is, our appliances don't have Chinese writing on them. The bad news is, there isn't any English either. Everything is done via pictures - I'm assuming so that these appliances can be used in all different parts of the world. The problem is, we don't really understand what the pictures mean. We're still working on that.
Our first full day (Sunday) was pretty successful. Our goal was to get some plug adaptors and a telephone for our apartment. We were laughing at ourselves because it really shouldn't be all that big of a deal but when there is no Target around, things seem to get a little more complicated. Thankfully, we found what we needed and managed to pick up an electric shaver for Chris at the same time. Woo hoo!
