Our adventure begins

We have recently been advised that Paul will be receiving orders to Australia. He will be working with the Royal Australian Navy as part of the Personnel Exchange Program. The base is HMAS Stirling south of Perth in Western Australia. It looks as though we will be living in Fremantle which is located between the base and Perth.

Paul is scheduled to detach from Kings Bay in October and report to Australia in November. However, in order for our house hold goods to arrive around the time we do, or shortly thereafter, we will be packing out in mid August.

Kris will be staying in the states and attending Columbus State University. She has received the Georgia Hope Scholarship and will be studying secondary education/mathematics.

Alex will be homeschooling from August until December/January during the transition. He will then attend a local Australian high school. Australia's school year runs from February to December with two week breaks between semesters.

We will periodically add information about our move and experiences to keep everyone up to date.
