walk to school with lindsey

i hope you enjoy a little slice of my day
tonio walked me there the first day to make sure i knew how to get there
he's such a great husband!
it takes about 20 minutes, not far at all

 out the front door after saying 'see you later' to tonio

 

 down the stairs - we are on the second floor, which is actually the 'first floor'

our first floor in america is the ground floor here - still getting used to it - makes sense, though

 leaving the apartment complex

 it's probably 8:35am - this is our street

 round the corner the next street

 in with the crowds of people - i like that everyone walks everywhere

it's possible in a city like nice, since everything is pretty centralized

 allez - go

 walk through the marketplace

 lots of construction going on around town

 most days i take different streets - keeps it fun and fresh

 a very popular and practical mode of transportation: scooters and bikes

 coming in june - yes!

 heading toward the train trestle

the train went over right as i arrived and continued while i walked under

for those of you who know me from montana, 
you know what a blessing from God this was

i love trains, and God has always used the train to
remind me that He cares for me

it made me smile

 another street

 here, i didn't turn, but continued straight across the cross walk

 market on the corner of the street the school is on

 here we are! rue de paris

 this café is diagonal from the market

in cyprus, the surf spot was called helios, so this also, like the train, warmed my heart

 and the alliance française is at the end of this street

 voilà

 

 main office door

 classroom at 8:57am

one of my classmates offrerred to take a picture of me before class

i thought you might like it ;)

next to me is a classmate - really sweet gal from saudi arabia

she has lived in france for 2 years now with her husband and 2 little girls

 view from where i sat today

and back home after studying french for 4 hours...ahhhh

it's probably 1:25pm

 the glass windows are to our living room terrace

it's covered and insulated, which is great

welcome home! - you can watch the video above to see

our mailbox...i always check it...sometimes 2 or 3 times a day =)

"hutchinson" is just in case we get mail with this name, so the mailman knows that it is, in fact, the proper box

i do hope you enjoyed this little tour - i enjoyed taking you on it

at the end of my school day, it's always a blessing to come home to my incredible husband
