Sorry about no post yesterday! We had a long day - left the house around eleven and went back to the Eiffel Tower to take a boat tour along the Seine, and then went to an art show of MJ's friend's, and had dinner there. We didn't get back until about eleven thirty, and alas alack, the internet wasn't working! We mostly just took it easy yesterday, though. I'll post pictures in a bit.


We are now at the country house, out in Volgre. It is absolutely lovely here. The house is seriously like something out of a fairytale storybook. It's amazing. And there are Miss Rumphius flowers here! It made me quite excited, even though no one knew what the hell I was talking about. Not big readers, this group. Especially not of picture books.


After a couple of hours of being here (eighty degrees, by the way) the four of us girls went into town and went shopping, leaving Rob to finish mowing the lawn and to start dinner. I got a cute new outfit, and we all had our first crepes in the country! (Hard to believe it's taken us this long, isn't it?) I will post pictures of everything later, though we didn't take any pictures of the cute little town - we were too busy shopping. :) But for now, I'm going to go bask in what's left of the sun and read. :)
