I have been here for 5 days, tomorrow. Here is what I have done;
Went grocery shopping at 2 different stores and navigated all of the rules.
I bought fish...dos de caubillard ( cod).. Not in a package but from the clerk.
I purchased a desk ( bureau) a chair ((chaise), an easel and a canvas. I put together said bureau and chaise...which is a big thing for me.
I had lunch with my friend Clarisse and her husband today. He does not speak English, so we spoke the best french that I had. It is exhausting. Clarisse lives on cap d 'Antibes...it is so beautiful.
The light was incredible today. You can see the Alps looming in the distance, all snow covered and clear. I hope to ski.
I am reading like mad. Just finished a very beautiful but sad book called " The Dog Stars" and am now reading " The Outpost" by Jake Tapper about a bunch of battles in Afghanastan...incredible book. Why are we there? More evidence that the is just no winning that war...no one will ever win the, like Vietnam.
