Providenceeeeee

Well, I am officially living in Providence! The move has come after months after months of anticipation, excitement, and . The drive here went well. My dad drove his Diamante and I took my Liberty, both vehicles packed with my belongings. After a short detour upon arriving in Providence, we made it to the new apartment. My landlords are both lovely people, and they immediately made me feel welcome, offering help with the move, as well as tidbits on the city (Frommers should be soooo jealous). My dad and I spent the day moving and setting up, before heading to Pot Au Feu, a wonderful French restauraunt in town which we have both fallen in love with. After heading back to the apartment, we spent the night reading and relaxing before turning it in. I slept surprisingly well in my new bed, although it felt weird to wake up somewhere else. This morning we found an awesome little Mom and Pop breakfast place, where I enjoyed some cinnamon pancakes (Mmmmm!). After breakfast we took care of a few last minute errands before my dad and I said our goodbyes. The day so far has been pretty good. I haven't had my t.v. come yet, but I did some cleaning and more setting up and the place is starting to look very "Kate-like" as Jamie or Stevi may say. I just got back from a walk along one of the main roads where I scoped out some places to shop, eat, and relax. Now I shall feast on my long awaited macaroni and cheese and wine dinner! Hopefully I'll have some pictures soon!
