One more week...

Well, we finally found a house to rent. We were trying to decide between this cute 200 year old cottage in an ultra small village (<500 people) or a "newer" home in a larger village (8000 people). After much back and forth....we decide on the "newer" home. It is within walkin distance of the local market, resturaunts and pubs; more spacious (the cottage had one shower that was so small Aaron could not turn around in it); near more Americans (we were told the neighbors near the cottage were not the friendliest)...Here is a picture of our new home.

We move in on friday and are anxious to finally get settled...two months of living out of suitcases is getting old.
Our landlord is an older lady who has taken great care of the house and she has planted all of these shrubs in the backyard...Looks like a nice English garden.
Once we get moved in and get our computer hooked up, we can keep in touch with everyone. Right now, we have to go a few blocks away to the library to check our emails.
The house has four bedrooms....plenty of room for visitors!! Hope all is well back in the states.
