Finally, some pictures

Hello everyone,

So, here's my first picture post. I haven't been taking very many pictures because, until earlier today, I was without the capability to take pictures off my camera and put them on my computer. Now I can do that. But this first set of photos doesn't begin to cover what I have seen. It's mostly stuff from my first few days in France, and then some pictures of my apartment. Here we go:

These first few are from the plane, flying over London and the U.K.
It is always so startling how an organism like London can be reduced to a texture of lights from this high up.



This is a Park in the 19th arrondissement called Butte Chaumont that I visited when I thought I might be living in the area. The whole thing is fake, the butte most of all.

These next couple are from my weekend in Pontoise, a town Northwest of Paris, in the old town at the top of 12th century (I think) ramparts.


Who would advertise psychoanalysis like this in the U.S.?




This is the view from where I stayed.

And finally, here are some shots of my new place, beginning with the cute shower curtain, which, because of my small hot water heater, I can only stay on the other side of for about 7 minutes.
This doubles as a kitchen and bathroom sink.
Here you can see almost the width of the apartment.
The building is very old, and I think these tiles have been preserved from the original construction.
That's about it for now, folks. I am starting a 1.5 week vacation (do I deserve this already?) and I will be taking my camera everywhere from now on. Tomorrow I'm going out of town a little ways to see an Le Corbusier house, so look for those pictures soon.
