We've posted some pictures of our apartment as well as some from the city center.

Tonight we are having dinner at Josienne's house with Jean-Jacque and Benno. Afterwards we are going to some australian bar with a bunch of other students, where we will hopefully see some champions league soccer.
Our french is getting better, enough so that we can now understand our teachers, although buying our cell phone yesterday proved to be quite a challenge, involving a lot of pointing and "pardon?". It is difficult because French has a lot of words that are strung together for phonetic reasons, and it takes some time to get used to decoding these continuous sounds into individual words.

Is that an exhaust hood above a toaster oven?
This is interior design by someone who does not like the smell of toast.
Great photos. I see Ilia eating an eclair -- has she tried a relly juice (religieuse) yet?
Our toaster oven doubles as an electric stove, which seems to work well enough for John to cook his pasta. We're still learning all the French customs, however, so it could turn out that the smell of toast is quite offensive indeed.
