Hallelujah we made it out of that horrific place!!! After one night of misery in which Sina and I shared one of Ruby's towels and her Paris blanket since we didn't dare use any of the blankets provided, we managed to convince those in charge of our housing situation that in no way could we spend another minute in the 5-bedroom maze. So after having packed up all our stuff last night, including Barkley, and moving it over there, tonight we did it all over again in reverse, and we're happily settled back into our little 1-bedroom slice of comfort in Boulogne. Barkley may be the only sad one in this case, as the maze actually had long balconies stretching across the full length of the apartment for him to run around on, but as much as we love him, he'll just have to be satisfied with long walks in the park here.
Wow, I could never have guessed a plain little old apartment like this one could make me so happy! My mom used to tell us kids we weren't allowed to take our socks off in motel/hotel rooms (actually she still tells us that!) I'll admit I've fallen a bit in my adherence to that rule, but let me assure you those socks stayed on last night till I was actually in bed. Now that we're back here, it's sweet freedom for my tired toes!!

See . . . A Paris blanket in Paris can be useful after all. And in the rubble of a stench ridden apartment, nobody is around to think its geeky.
