Update!!!!

I’ve received messages from people about my blog….and it not being up to date. To be honest, it has been too cold here to really get out and do a whole lot. Can you believe, it is too cold to snow even! I’m just baring it and planning our trip to Venice. We leave on Sunday. So rest assure, even if it is freezing in Venice too, there will be some blog posts and pictures of the trip. I'm too excited.

But some highlights of the week include mostly food (sorry no pictures). I’ve been eating a lot of macarons. Actually it had gotten rather ridiculous, so I’m on a no macaron diet for a few days. My breaking point was eating a vanilla macaron the size of a mini birthday cake. I knew I had hit rock bottom when I wanted another right after.

I’ve had the opportunity to taste the local specialties. I have found my new favorite cheese (Ossau-Iraty) delicious. And have experienced my first 3 hour restaurant dinner (still getting used to the full course meals).

Still love it here, even with the cold! I'm torn because I want to see it actually snowing, but I know snow in the city is kind of a nuisance for everyone. We'll see!

Pics soon!
