New York Week One

Olaf and I moved to New York City on October 18th! It's been a crazy week for us both- Olaf with his new job and myself running around looking for an apartment. It's been a thousand times more sunny than London, and I feel better already. 

Picking up the kitties at JFK's BA cargo facilities. What a mess! Poor kitties were in the warehouse with all the big forklifts banging down pallets of who-knows-what from abroad. Luca's lock was even broken off her cage, but thankfully her door was still closed.

After five hours of running around to different buildings, answering questions and paying various fees, we finally got them! Hazel threw up in the car and cried for three days straight. She is much better now, thank you very much.
Delirious.

Sleeping off the trauma.

Croatia, September 2013

Olaf and I took a trip to Croatia in September. We visited Dubrovnik, Hvar, Split and Trogir. We saw and loved lots of kitties, and ate fantastic food. The fresh fish was Olaf's favorite, and I enjoyed mussels and clams. We had gelato twice a day, so I guess we enjoyed that too ;)

Here's a few photos from our trip!
