Honey, I Shrunk The Condo

More than a year after we started packing to move to Ecuador, and four months after arriving in Ecuador, our container with all our worldly possessions was delivered today!  And somehow, the condo suddenly looks a lot smaller than it did this morning, now that it is buried deep in boxes…

Our container actually arrived at the port in Guayaquil last week, and was inspected by Customs Tuesday of this week.  The Customs inspector removed every item from the 20′ container we had used, and opened the majority of our boxes, resealing them with Aduana tape.  Fortunately though, they did not question anything and it went through cleanly.

The truck carrying our container came in a convoy of similar trucks late last night.  It was then parked on a remote wide street, where our contents were transferred to a smaller truck that would be allowed in El Centro, where we live. 

That truck was then driven to our building, where a team of five movers brought it all up to our condo.

Now the fun begins, as we spend the next month unpacking everything and getting control of our condo again…

  1. Exciting when the stuff finally gets here and you see what you packed. Some things we forgot we packed and other things we said: "Why did we ship that!". Fun going through it all though. Enjoy.
