Today Sterlin got dropped off at Schumacher Cargo and Logistics for shipping to Australia. The process was extremely easy and very reasonably priced at $1,850.
In preparation of arrival into Sydney, Sterlin underwent a serious cleaning to remove any trace of bugs and oil leaks. Apparently the Australian bio-security folks are very serious when it comes to imported cars and bugs. And the local Department of Motor Vehicles does not like oil leaks.
We do not yet have an arrival date into Australia. Ideally Sterlin does not arrive until after July 10th, so we can be there to greet it.
It now feels like the big adventure is underway. Tomorrow I fly to Norway.
