So I might have to play a little catch up later since I'm writing pretty early today--I think we are hoping to go on the Airbus tour this afternoon as well as go to the big grocery store down by where Cam works...if we do that then I will definetely have to write about that tomorrow :) We are also trying to plan something fun to do this weekend--something that gets us out of the city according to Cam! Until then though we are here at the hotel in the city...Cam is at work right now and he went in a little later because he took Sara and Rob to the airport this morning so he will have to work until about 2 I think he said and then he will come home and get me so we can go check out Airbus (I would take the train, but he said it would take me an hour and a half to ride it there or he can come get me and spend 20ish minutes in the car...car wins. I got up pretty early (for me!) to say good bye and thanks to Sara and Rob this morning--I don't know if they could have been smiling any bigger :) So far this morning it has been cool and cloudy--I have both the windows open right now to try and help dry those clothes I washed yesterday--about half are dry and the other half are still fairly damp. Housekeeping is supposed to be coming by this morning so I am also hanging around for a little bit to see how that goes (usually Sara left the room for that but I don't really have anywhere to go so I'm just going to hang out this first week then starting next week I might go somewhere while they clean...we will see!) So I figured while I had a few extra minutes I could catch up! I am really starting to cherish these first few hours each morning where I can read my emails from home (I usually wake up and check that first thing! :) Brings a big smile to my face!) and sometimes working on the blog and also a little Facebook time just to keep up with what's going on at home! Although I will say my Facebook time has significantly decreased since my phone doesn't work here! :) Oh well....I uploaded a few more pictures to share--we had a good time at dinner last night--it wasn't quite what I was expecting so I ate a salad--Cam had some of what he called darn good salmon and scalloped potatoes (they were sliced super thin--yum!)...then we ordered some dessert because it was Sara and Rob's last night--it came out as something completely different than I thought but Cam took a few bites and said it was pretty good! After dinner we headed back here so they could finish working on stuff--Cam and I watched a little bit of Despicable Me before we fell asleep. That brings us back to this morning :) I think with that I will load some pictures!
So these are from the past few days-not all in the same day :)
Who doesn't love some salt and vinegar chips??? A little piece of home for me! And this pic goes along with the next one....
THEY HAVE SUBWAY! YAHOOOOOO!!!! And it's about the same price so I've eaten lunch there twice this past week!!
Cam just reading the newspaper before dinner....it was in French. :)
Here's the Capitole Building that's in the center of the town...we ate dinner in the center a few nights ago....I took this picture from our dinner table....
Don't mind our full bellies--we had just eaten pizza and pasta! Should have taken the pic BEFORE dinner! Oh well!
So I have been carrying my little camera bag as my wallet/purse while I have been here and it turns out Sara has one almost just like it in black so that night we had the boys hold them while we took a pic together...we thought they rocked 'em!
You can also look behind the boys and see all the different restaurants--there are like 7 or 8 on that strip right next to each other--the only thing that separates them are umbrellas and different chairs/tables...we ate at the one right over Rob's left shoulder...
This was at dinner last night at the "Meet the Meat"...
The whole crew at "Meet the Meat"...
This is the dessert menu from last night...just wanted to show what stuff here looks like...you look for keys words! I know the word for chicken and ham and cheese so far--those are usually my go to words!! :)
We hope you all have had a great week! Melinda said it's been a lot nicer there (not in the hundreds!!) so we hope you all have a great weekend as well! We love you and miss you all!
