| Packing Boxes (Amsterdam)
Our first pile of boxes against the wall in the living room. We sold the dinnertable. There are also boxes in the hall and on the attic. |

| Crap to throw (Amsterdam).
Some stuff didn't sell but had to be thrown on the streets. Hopefully not too much for the garbage collection. In the end I figured that half of the stuff (chair, pipes, planks, fridge) were taken away by some people who had a van and a truck (Turkish mainly). |

| Yes.. so many boxes. We had in the end nearly 70 boxes, or perhaps even more if you include the special boxes for paintings and computers/servers |

| The guy on the left is packing computers and screens in big boxes. Took him nearly the whole hour and a half (10 computers/servers, 5 monitors).
The guy in the back is putting the couch through the window down to the guy below standing on the truckloader. The truck is a bit higher up than normal, so they don't need a lift. |

Because we had to wait for 30 minutes for Toll check (by telephone via a moving company in Oslo), we decided to drink a coffee (on my cost) at the Shell station. Plus they had to pick up their trailer at the stadion. |
