Progress!

Here's a photo of our view from the balcony in Parramatta. (If you squint, you can see the Sydney skyline...). Notice how I'm trying to suppress my excitement?! We have a great view and a huge balcony/terrace to enjoy BBQs and afternoon teas. Tomorrow JR is venturing out this way to enjoy a BBQ with us, so I'm looking forward to that.
Today we drove out to Meadowbank to view a unit again. The same agent stood us up again, so we were very lucky to meet Dave, who is an agent with Waterpoint Apartments. He was stood up and was more than happy to show us an apartment (the same unit that Alan and I were admiring from the grounds). It's gorgeous, a little small; however it has that WOW factor and it does have all the criteria that we wanted including air conditioning! We filled out an application so fingers crossed it'll get approved without any hiccups. We should be able to move in within two weeks. It was almost too easy, as it's been very stressful trying to get in touch with agents and viewing properties. Today we had a very tight schedule, viewing townhouses and flats, but after this morning we had the whole day to relax!
Tonight we're having dinner in Darlinghurst with S&S. It should be fun being back in the hood on a Sat night.
