Nouvel An

We left home Christmas day and flew to France, where we celebrated the new year. 
Here are some moments from our trip:

The Christmas celebration at Remi's parents' house. Le Pere Noel brought Camille an incredible princess tent.





Of course, the food was spectacular.

Also the company. Here are Camille's uncles Florian and Quentin, with her aunt Chloe.




 Walking around with a big hunk of baguette, comme d'habitude. This was taken in a village just outside of Luxembourg. We spent New Years' eve there with some of Remi's best friends from undergrad. Unfortunately, we didn't take many pictures!




This was taken at Chloe's house in Normandy. She lives on a beautiful, working, private french farm. There were gorgeous heritage chickens clucking all over the place, talk about free range!

 







Camille in front of the window, notice aforementioned chicken in the background. 

 In Rouen, the town close to Chloe's.


These next few pictures are all taken in Lille, Remi's hometown.




Lille has a very cool Museum of Natural History.
