moving in…

October 26, 2007 at 9:30 pm (apartment)

hehehe,, Cameron is the one taking a nap this time!

Less than 24 hours after we first entered the apt. we started moving in. true to form, I (emma )brought all my shoes first, as i didn’t know what else to bring. we spent most of the day cleaning and re-arranging the furniture in the living room, which proved to be difficult as we had to fit in a single bed without making it look awkward.. which actually it still kinda does. But thanks to Cameron’s genius, we can pull it off. once re-arranged we felt much more at home and excited to begin the transformation of the rooms.

The bedrooms both get a good amount of light, and also have wooden blinds to block out light, so i am excited to take my fist nap in my new room. Cameron was smart enough to bring pictures to make her bedroom feel more comfortable, but as i was in many of the pictures she lent me a few for the time being… such a good friend!

we were also able meet the “landlord”. he was in his upper sixties, with a large nose and a pink jolly complexion. Although the woman who rented us the apt warned us about his inquisitive nature, he was in the middle of lunch and did not ask us too many questions but, promptly informed us that if we need anything at all we should go to him, and also that we were not just renters in this apt building but now part of a bigger family.

We still need many more things.. such as plants… wall hangings… forks… and sheets without little black hairs in them… but the apt is more than what we had hoped for.

After cleaning, arranging our shoes, and talking with the landlord we walked around the neighborhood a bit and were pleasantly surprised at the clean air, and tree lined streets. There are also many shops up and down the street that will fill all our needs… fruit stands, coffee shops, pharmacies.. ect.

tonight we will cook our first dinner to break in the kitchen… Breaded meat, salad and of coarse vino tinto

more to come…
