      Arriving in Adelaide next week!

      hello all,
      We arrive in adelaide in one weeks time having never been to Oz before.

      Our children are aged 10 and 5 and are thankfully looking forward to going, although I anticipate lots of tears at the airport. I am flittering between feeling adventurous and plain foolhardy for taking the leap! No jobs as yet, and so can't wait to (hopefully) meet new friends as soon as poss. Any advice?

      Notice the forum has meet ups etc. where do I get more info on the when and wherefors of these?

      Gosh, panic! excitement!!

      Hi Wendywoo


      welcome to poms in adelaide :lol:

      We arrive in Adelaide in less than 6 weeks now and have never been before either so know how you are feeling at the moment :shock:

      We have a 4 year old constantly asking how much longer til we live in oz and is very very excited and cannot wait to go.

      Anytime you fancy meeting up with others in oz just post under the social section a date and place and you will get answers from those who can make it.

      I am free for a coffee or any BBQ offers from April 28th onwards :lol:

      This forum is a great place to meet friends and there are a few I am looking forward to meeting when we get there 8)

      Re: Arriving in Adelaide next week!

      Hi, good luck.

      What areas are you looking at being once you arrive. Just thought this would be handy if people wanted to meet up. If you say your area, people who live there/or near there could contact you.

      Hope you all have a safe journey.

      Thanks all.

      Arrived safely and getting around the city a bit viewing various areas. Lucky that i have my sis here to stay with temporarily while we find our feet.

      Good luck to all those on their way in the near future, and looking forward to maybe meeting up with a few of you to swap travel tales!

      WendyWoo.
