Grenoble...
We are really really lucky. Every day we wake up and we're living in a postcard. Plus the weather seems to be perfect all the time. Not bragging.. just pointing out that we realize how lucky we are.
Also, welcome (from France) to the newest member of our family: Emily Rose Darling. We look forward to seeing her through FaceTime (and real life) soon.
I have lots of pictures to put on here from last weekend and Sandi's birthday but I don't have them with me right now so at least it's something that will be coming. For Sandi's birthday we went to a really fancy restaurant in Grenoble called l'Auberge Napoléon. It has this name because Napoleon spent the night there at the beginning of his 100-day reign that ended at the Battle of Waterloo.
Today we'll go on a bike ride organized by the FFCT -- Fédération Française de CycloTourisme. You pay 5 euros and they give you a map of the route (you can choose between 40 and 90 km) and there's support on the way and you get snacks and things like that. It should be good for finding some good cycling roads and seeing some sights as well! First, though, we'll go to the market again because it's right by our house and is pretty cool with lots of good food.
Last night we watched a French film -- Jeux d'Enfants (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeux_d%27enfants). I don't really know what to say about it without giving it away but it was really good. Well, it's about these two kids who start off when they're really young daring each other to do things and the dares get progressively more ridiculous/crazy as they get older and it pretty much makes them nuts. But it's a good movie!
