dance day 36


So my sister bought an RV so she could do trips during COVID-19.  It’s solid logic.  I myself was glad to be able to use my in-laws’ RV when France started to ease restrictions and you go places but you couldn’t sit down anywhere. It was like weird Speed where you had to be in constant movement.  Or as The Oak Ridge Boys would say “You don't have to go home but you can't stay here”.  In that kind of environment RVs are great.  

Sometimes, just for fun I look at apartments available in Paris for under 100K. On this particular day amidst the apartments that are 5 meters square or viagers, I saw one in the 12 arrondissement, 12 meters square with a terrace for 78,000 euros.

Turns it it’s a boat with a kitchen, toilet, shower and sleeps 6.  Basically an RV but a boat. I immediately saw myself as Géraldine Danon, my husband Philippe Poupon on our way to the Arctic, our kids swimming with dolphins.  

Nevermind the fact that we don’t know how to navigate a boat and our kids don’t know how to swim.  We could all learn, right? 

Right.
