Who Are the People in Your Neighbourhood?

Before leaving Canada, we spent some time exploring our neighbourhood.  What did we like about our neighbourhood?  What made us happy?  What might be interesting to someone on the other side of the world?

Sometimes I had the camera, sometimes Shawn did.  And sometimes we handed it over to Shawn's friends and/or their little sisters.   We thank them all for their contributions.

In addition to being able to show these to new friends that we meet, what I really love about this activity is being able to go back and look at the photos and videos with the kids, now that we are already in France and have traveled so much.  We compare our old neighbourhood to our new one, and we laugh at pictures of ourselves and our family.  Mostly, we just smile a lot.


Our house...


...is a very, very, very fine house.


With two kids in the yard...




This is where Shawn's friend used to live before she moved to another neighbourhood.

Stop!  In the name of the law! 



Every time we take our bikes around the block, we pass this and I admire it. 




Hi Keegan's Mom!  Thanks for letting us stop and play.


We took some small everyday housewares with us to make to kids feel at home in their new France house.

Ah
