It has been a little over a month since Chrissy stepped off of a plane and into Catalonia (it is April 18 today, but we are going to backdate this post to her arrival date). We have a cute little apartment overlooking the plaza with a branch of the local movie theater.
Luckily, Chee Sing managed to find an apartment with an "American Style" kitchen, so we don't cook in a closet, and a patio with walls so Chrissy doesn't lose the clothes she hangs on the line outside. (Note: These are all from before we moved in, we'll take some new ones soon)
After Chrissy's arrival, we set about making our little apartment a home with life's small pleasures like a coffee pot, a mixer, and even a tiny TV (we get about 30 free channels to augment our Wii time and help with Catalan practice!).
All of the language classes are booked, so until September, we can study online: www.parla.cat
We didn't have internet until this month (since the cheapest company never got around to setting it up). After a month and a half of waiting on Ya.com we decided to cancel and start fresh with Jazztel! It was a good choice, as a little over a week later we were up and running (and now here we are!).
Stay tuned for our Easter trip to France, some clips of the parade here, and a walk on the wall. We often forget our camera, but we're doing our best to keep you all informed!
Love, fishes, and robots!
Chrissy and Chee Sing
