Our Big Move To France

Foggy winter mornings don’t stop people from getting out and about.
The scene from our window.
Today we are expecting 2 out of 7 boxes to arrive at our friends apartment. This delivery has turned out to be a major pain, but she graciously lets us take showers and hang out until they arrive. Then we will tote them to her storage space until we find our own apartment. At the Airbnb we are staying in, we have no storage options.
Good news is that I got my french phone number and we activated our visas, thanks to our host who graciously allowed us to use this address as a permanent one.
Now I think we have what we need to apply for a bank account.
Once all that is done we can fill out the government papers, the “dossier” in order to rent an apartment.
That will be our next big step.
On the water heater front, repair persons will be here again today. Fingers crossed that we will have heat and hot water soon!
Other than that we’ve been walking a lot and getting little things we need, like finding mirin, rice wine vinegar and a dish drying rack! Essentials for life, IMO.
