Pictures of the new place

Here are some photos of the new place, for the curious. First, here is the front of the building. Since we are in 2R, we are in the second floor (middle) on the right side (so closest to the peach colored building). It is a very long and skinny apartment. Our apartment runs to the back of the building in 5 rooms, starting the the nice front one with three windows, next the bedroom, new the office, next the living room, and finally the kitchen in the back.


When you enter the building, this is the view. You can see this long skinny building comes with a long skinny hallway and staircase. These are the stairs we lugged all our stuff up, and our door is just visible at the top of the stairs.

Here is another view of our door. The doors are kind of odd, in that they are set turned into each other, with a little less than a 90 degree angle between them (the doors open into the apartments, so they won't hit). This would be a difficult apartment to have if we were overweight, since everything is quite narrow. In this pic, the door on the right side is ours. The stairs continue up to the third floor (as you can see).

This final shot of the building shows the front door (from the inside looking out). I think it is a pretty door, with the decorative window. The tile floor has a colorful snowflake, which is kind of cool. Also, the building mailboxes are on the right. We have been getting our mail no problem--many thanks to those who have sent cards or letters.

So many things are still in boxes that I don't want to include inside shots yet, but I did want to put this photo up, to show the AC we picked up on our last adventure. Eve is also in this pic, but she is hard to find. If you see her, write her location in a comment. :)

The ferrets are very happy to have an AC, especially the last couple days, where the temps have climbed into the mid-90s. They also like to have all the boxes around. Here you can see Rex "helping" me unpack some clothing.
