So I braved the cold with my coffee this morning and teetered up the tiny wooden circular stairs to see the sun coming out — the Ferris Wheel is almost up in the Place de Jaude, for the Christmas tree lighting tonight! Should be beautiful! Definitely expect more pictures! I’ll have a lot to tell about Christmas in France.
The kids are coming for Christmas (and Robert’s 30th birthday – !!!) and we’ll leave on the 26th for Paris on the train. We’ll spend the day together in the Paris Christmas Markets on the Champs Elysee on the 27th, then they’ll return on the 28th. NOT LONG ENOUGH! So excited that they are coming.
In the rush to move/pack/store, we didn’t bring any of our Christmas decorations. Nothing. Like being newly married, no Christmas lovelies and memories from over the years. 🙁 We’ll have to find some new ones!
Still no internet or TV yet. Talk about serious withdrawal. It’s BAD! Tomorrow we should be getting our car, the washer, the oven, and a new bed we bought from some other expat Michelin folks that are going back stateside. A big weekend of still moving and setting up! 🙂
More soon – just a quickie of the morning view. Breathtakingly lovely.
