Our container

Waiting.....


Hello, you love 

today I contact, Melanie, once to word in this blog.


To our regret this has lasted with the duty and the container on site longer like has planned and has thought.


Moreover the history:.


Arrival container boa Vista 5/7/2019.


On the 31.5 we were allowed to see the container for the first time for an inspection. At 8:50 o'clock we were in the harbour, because the planned inspection should take place at 9:00 o'clock.


Expiry:


10:10 o'clock Still wait for an important person with unloaded are present has to go.  


10:43 o'clock we see for the first time our container.


Waiting... Until the missing tongs are there for opening..


10:55 containers openly. 

As the first we had to create the car out and solve for it the transport protection of the car. Then the battery angeklemmt should become, remove rat with the look under the bonnet first. To our surprise the battery was still angeklemmt, well such a building site less. A car from the container drive. This happened about a ramp them a forklift driver had brought. Now our transport box with our private things was carried outward. Opening the box by us.


While to his controlled 3 officials the car.


Against 11:15 we had unloaded the transport box (more than 50 stack pieces). All cardboards were searched whether the also customs declaration is right. 


12:20 o'clock After we started to sight our new product, we found out that the translation of the new product has not come at the harbour..


12:30 o'clock containers again put away and close. With own castle his key we had to deliver. 


Unfortunately, this was only the first inspection. There followed another 2 other ones.....


I am not the most patient person and the waiting felt everlasting. .


On the 14.6 we were quite relatively near in it the container project. Still without car, for it the papers were not ready yet, however, unfortunately, there have been with the payment in the harbour problems and have lasted once again longer. Bank maps from Germany are accepted here not all too often. We do not have our bank map from Cabo Verde yet, also this requires patience. Finally had the customs official end of work and went home, because on the week-end is not worked, so break.


Monday 17.6 our things are from the duty and on the way home. You may advise 3 spots what has happened on this day to 4 spots. Yes exactly inspection number 4.

Luckily 4. and the last. Finally, thus the long waiting and hope had an end.


Unfortunately, the long state time of the container has thrown back us not only in our schedule, but has torn a hole in our budget.


Since Monday to him 17.6 we were very diligent everybody 3, and have dealt with the removal of our location in Sal Rei. We have built with the wood from the transport box shelves around everything can well stow away. I must say this, till present has succeeded us very well. Everything is not well-arranged yet, but we work on it! You can believe me, until still finds the last little things the right place, a few more days will pass.


On the 19.6 we might receive the car, with the drawn up winter tyres (car has gone in March to Hamburg). The normal tyres had to remain in the harbour there these did not stand on the papers... If it is right stood on the 17.06 under our private matters. Well, 2 meets later then we might fetch them.



I hope the insight into the last months has liked you. Finally is to be said only so much. The life is a roller coaster journey.;) 


Up to the next spot

yours

Melanie.
