Je suis arrivée

Alors...I have arrived. Forgive me for any typos but i'm back on a French keyboard and still getting used to it. Anyway today is my first day back in Paris, unfortunately it's a bank holiday so there are simply too many people. Gui and I had a nice lunch together at the appartment though and then I went off looking for my new training office for tomorrow. I thought I had it all sorted, I had the address, I google mapped it, Gui pointed me in the right direction and off I went.

40 minutes later, feet blistered from new shoes I arrived at 88 Boulevard St Michel. I was looking for 90 bvd st michel...which apparently doesn't exist. I walked all around the area and even back the other way to check I hadn't missed it but no luck. So I decided in the sunshine I would go have a lie down on the grass in Luxembourg Gardens where I had a half an hour nap before heading back. I have just checked online (on the actual work webpage) and it looks like there is another 90 bvd saint michel and it's right near Clunny La Sorbonne so I'm going to go for another walk in a minute (worry not I bought plasters)!!!

Also because of ther Ascension the Notre Dame bells are having a party. It was pretty annoying at 11pm last night but I walked past earlier and they had speakers outside so you could hear the choir. It was pretty amazing! I just sent off the last part of my assignment so now I best strap up my feet and head out again.
