Getting to Know You


This week is "Neighbour Week' - getting to know your neighbours here in Antony. Our main streets have always been very active, and we joined in the fun tonight. Our little road, rue de la grande Couture was closed off, and on the road was the party! Everyone brought a little something to eat and drink and then everyone mingled. Its a great way to meet and get to know the other neighbours, people whom you often greet but never actually know who they are. I think that this is a wonderful tradition.
Bibou had fun, as she had a LOT of space to run around! She was a bit clingy in the begining, but soon warmed up to the other kids... kids around her age (though she is the youngest by at least 1 year). The older(ish) kids were just enchanted by her... they think she's a doll (to play with!).
Well, the music is still playing on the street, Daddy's still out there (I'm here updating the blog while 'keeping an eye' out for Bibou who fell promptly to sleep!).. I'm off to bed.
Good night all.
