So it took another 3 days, but we finally got the keys to our apartment. It rained the entire weekend and it was also a holiday, but we managed on Monday to get some appliances. So we went to this store called Boulanger (it is sort of like Circuit City) and spent 2/3 hours there buying a fridge, washer, oven, microwave and iron. They didn't have the fridge, washer or oven in stock. What a big surprise that was! So we now have to wait and have them deliver everything on Friday. I had to order a coffee maker (good grief) and it will be here on Wednesday. The other totally crazy thing is that we wanted a toaster and they didn't have that in stock, either. They said it was going to take 4 weeks! For a friggin toaster???? So after that we went to Decathalon. (Pics above) Boy do I like this store! It is like Sports Chalet, but wayyyy better. The last picture is little Presley exhausted from the day and it was only half over at that point! So we got some mats and sleeping bags because we have to camp out on the floor of our apartment for the next month until our stuff from the states arrives. Lord help us!!!
Then we went to some random store that wants to be Ikea and got mentally exhausted by all the crap you can buy. We only came out of there with some hangers and a shower curtain! Michael absolutely hated that place so I venture to guess that we will never go back there.
Then we decided to go to the sea for a quick view. It was really stormy that night. What a bunch of crazies we were!
