New Snow

It has been quite cold here lately, like today at 4.30pm I was looking at the temperature and it was the same as in Australia as here and in Oz it is 10.30pm!!!
Seen as it has been quite cold and thunder stormy it means that there is new white snow on the mountains, and I think it looks like chocolate chip ice-cream!!!

Sortie à Chambery

Yesterday Mum, Bonnie and I (Sophie) went out for the day to Chambery (a major city around 30kms from us). The main reason that we went was because we were getting a part for the not very good washing-machine here, that blew. But why did we even go?, because the part didn't work and today Mum, Dad and Hugh just went and bought a new washing machine!

Anyway, to our day! Well, we set off and it started to drizzle a bit, and then it got a bit worse and it started to really rain. And then, you couldn't even see where we were going because we were caputured by grey clouds, fast rains, and no one even brought a jumper! Luckily the umbrella was still in the car. But why did we need it? We didn't, because in Chambery it was a sunny day!

We first got the part for the washing-machine, then we visted KIABI, that mum said was the most recommended store. But not any more says she, nor us, maybe it's the new winter selection, but the clothes were not nice! I'm not sure where we went next, but we visited two King Jouet shops, 4 house decoration shops and a strange resturant called "Hippopotamus", it was very nice inside, the tables all set, chips on the bar and the wine fridge open, but no one there! We did hear somes noises coming from the kitchen, but when I called out "Bonjour, est-que quelqun est là?" still no one came, very strange!!!

Believe that it was so cold when we went, because when we came back, it was so hot in the car!
Got to go to bed, Good Night.

Six mois passé!!!











Today, we have been in France for 6 months! It has passed so quick, and it seems as though we're leaving so soon, though I do miss my Australian friends. xoxo
