Good news from France! I'm doing quite well, the coming winter months don't seem so daunting with this great family unit I have installed here. You've heard all about them, so I have only to make updates as our stories progress. There's been a fair amount of chaos in the house this past week as Bruno staged is move out of the house and the rest of us here filled in the space he occupied. Saturday seven of us moved Bruno and his affairs from rue Saulnier to rue de Dunkerque, a 15 minute walk North, still in the 9th arrondissement. The move was simple, and with our squad assembled, it was completed in two hours and a single trip with the family's van and a baker friend's Smart. Here are some photos.
Oh wow, what might! The squad.
Ombeline remarked that Bruno has a certain catwalk effect in this picture.
Bruno is now a resident of rue de Dunkerque.
You wouldn't think of using a Smart for you next move, would you? Well, that's what we did here.
We did it! From the left: Ombeline, Vianney's friend Alexandre, Tony the baker, and of course Bruno.
Tomorrow night Bruno's throwing a party to celebrate his Baker's degree, which he just received from some Parisian Baker's Association, a pretty big deal in the Boulanger-Patissier world. The fellow in the white t-shirt (above standing before the Smart) is going to introduce me to his girlfriend, who he claims is a model. He's very proud of her.
Oh! And for those of you wondering, last Friday night's Discotheque soiree was a succes: good music, good company, fun dancing, and a great ride back on Velib' bikes. I would have to kill you if I said anything more. JK. Expect more soon, I have a photo of Clignancout!
PS TONIGHT I'M GOING TO MY FIRST FRENCH PARTY, THE INVITATION TO WHICH I SECURED BY MY OWN CONTACTS AND MERITS!
