The New Car has arrived


On a hot and wet Friday afternoon, Eli and I made our way up to Subaru to pick up the new car. We were 'sposed to be there at 3:30, but we missed the 3pm bus (it wizzed past us while we were standing in the minimal amount of shade from the bus stop), so we didn't get there until 4pm.
We had to wait a while because we'd missed our spot, and we had to go through the last of the paper work etc.

Finally we got taken through the "Majic doors" to see the new car - all clean and shiny...

We'll that didn't last. The heaven's opened up about the same time as Eli opened the door so we could drive out. By time we got home the car was as dirty as the one I'd dropped off.

So, today we headed down to Warrandyte to take Boots for a swim in the river. The car is really dirty now, but at least the rubber matts in the back have stopped Boots from making a mess of the carpet, and he doesn't slide arround so much!
