Apples & Baguettes

My back is so sore after yesterday! There is the Apple Expo 2007 on at the Port de Versailles, so being a showery day, Mark and Justin are keen to go to this, eager to look at the latest gadgets. Seemingly they are very impressed. I enjoy a little walk around the local village and buy the obligatory baguette. Now I feel like a real French woman even though I don’t look like one and I certainly don’t sound like one!!

After a quick dinner it’s off to the meeting. Well…..yet another story. After ringing the branch earlier in the week and trying to make the poor brother understand our high school French, he told us in his broken English the address of the English speaking congregation.  We catch two trains and walk some distance to arrive just as the meeting started… in Portugese!! The English meeting was apparently last night according to the board outside written in French! It was still nice to be with brothers and sisters, sing the songs and follow along in our English literature.

We did discover a beautiful part of Paris though, amazing cafes and patisseries near the Kingdom Hall.  We decide to walk home, a very brisk 35 minute walk with the five flights of stairs at the end!
