Our apartment in Reims was easy to find and it has parking right outside the door, which is great.  It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but there are lots of big trees and it is in a quiet location.Our Airbnb host met us at the apartment yesterday and he had a little box of six macarons and a jar of his own honey for us as an anniversary gift for us.  He only spoke French but we were able to communicate without any problem…after two and half months in France I am feeling more comfortable speaking French.

The apartment is old, but it is clean and has everything we need.  The only thing that might be a problem is that the radiators have no way to adjust the heat.  There is a set temperature, and it doesn’t feel all that warm. It is cold and rainy outside and we are both quite happy to stay home today.  Bob seems to have recovered  quite quickly from his Covid but it is taking me me a bit longer.  I work on the blog while Bob does laundry and researches what we will be doing in Reims.
