Our apartment

Now that we're down to our final three days in Pau, I suppose I should give a glimpse as to what our life is like! We are staying in a three bedroom/one bath apartment on the third floor of the villa, and it's pretty much as charming and delightful as you imagine. It has an amazing view of the Pyrenees, and of the villa's garden below. Aside from the wind blowing the trees, and some very active pigeons living beneath the roof line, the apartment is quiet as a mouse. Many lucky students studying French have stayed here over the years, but now we are some of the lucky friends for whom David and Fernand reserve the apartment.

Eric in the living area, with one of the bay windows in the background.

That bay window has become "where Maisy's house is," as we brought the Maisy Mouse house set along, which has provided hours of entertainment. Thank you Granny Sylvia!
 
The kitchen is wee, and if you move around too quickly you might get a concussion, but we love and I made what I think is my best quiche yet in there!
 Chloe sleeps on a couch, pushed up next to our bed (and clearly, she sleeps very well there, buried beneath her heart comforter!).
