Here's Isabella in her kitchen

Going to the shops...

Stacking the tins and the dishwasher

Keep practising Isabella

Thought I'd better post a picture of Isabella seeing how it's her blog after all. Here she is, already mastered the cheeky girl pose.

Here she is doing a funky dance move, I think she still needs to work on this one, maybe relax a little.

Furniture is here

Here's a picture of the apartment building. We're actually overlooking the courtyard (i.e. the back) on the second floor. We saw our neighbours place, which resembled the Palace of Versailles and realised that we are indeed in the cheap seats, despite our ceiling frescoe.

Moving in day

Ever wondered what your life would look like in a box? Well here is ours. I must say we managed pretty well for 3 weeks with what we shipped in advance, so it's actually a bit horrifying to see so many boxes of "stuff" turn up. On the otherhand, the main piece of furniture are indeed a joy to have.

and here is "stuff" going up the "elevator" and through the window

Here we have one room in place, no pictures on the walls yet though. The rest of the rooms are still in disorder.

The Statue of Liberty in Paris

Spot the difference, one is in New York and the other is in Paris. The NYC Statue of Liberty was a gift of friendship from the people of France to the people of the USA. It is a universal symbol of freedom and democracy apparently. In return the Americans of Paris built a 35 ft replica. There's a rumour going round the French would like the original one back now.

English countryside

Met Philip and Helen for a quick pub lunch and a short walk (due to Isabella's short legs). Philip took some nice photos of Isabella
