Last one?

Hi Loves,

So this might be my last post from Paris....what a crazy thought. All is well here. Although the past week has been a little rainy - the outlook on our final week looks good. Not much new to report - have been trying to do a bit of everything before Study Abroad 2006 is over. Celebrated Jackie's 20th birthday last Friday (next up: May 29th...) and went to a new underground club with Caitlin on Wednesday. Daily activies have included picnicing, shopping, packing (crazy, i know), going to my new favorite musuem - the Marmaton (Monet's Musuem), and even seeing a few 'picture-shows' as Annie likes to call them (Jesuscamp, Irina Palm, Pur Weekend). From here on out we have the weekend, two days of class, an oral exam, a final exam, Matthew coming, quick trip to Germany, back to Paris, and home.

Wow.

I cannot wait to see each and everyone of you. It's very unsettling all this "coming home" buisness. You're not really sure where you want to be - Paris/America/Somewhere in between. I am really looking forward to coming home and getting back (or as close as possible) to "normal" but I'm also terribly sad to see this semester go.

Anyways - A few pics to hold you over until you can have the REAL me.

Love you tons,
Katy

Since Annie is sleeping and I am enjoying a nice cup of coffee I thought I would post a few pictures.
Enjoy.

Katy and Claire enjoying the beauty of Giverny.







Claire and Caitlin AMAZED at Monet's inspiration...











Daily activity in Les Arcs



















THE HOUSE














The beach and beauties in Nice (niece...) but as Jackie would say, "Nice is not so nice...."

Sad news

So the scary looking, "I'm the coolest man in France and thus the world" Nicolas Sarkozy won the election and thus we made it back to Paris to find it relatively calm and without riots. This is not to say people weren't rioting in their own ways - but the bastille was still not standing (it burnt after the first revolution) and thus we all have spent the last three days studying (I know!#(#?!)... But I'm no longer enjoying the internet, emails, or blogs (except for nikerunning.com and my training log) so this might not change for awhile.

Sorry Loves.

VE Day

Off to "Les Arches" for the weekend - southern france- a city near Aix-en-Provence...
Keep your eyes on the presidental elections here...if all goes well (and by well, i mean the woman wins) the trains might strike and I could be in Provence for alot longer than i thought....

I'll make it home though.

No worries.
