Today we visited Columbia University for the first Today we visited Columbia University for the first time since we moved from NYC. We didn’t attend the university but we did get married there. We took pictures in front of the chapel where we were married 22 years ago. What was cool is that the chapel is right next to the French House (last picture) and we didn’t even know it. #twuewuv #columbiauniversity #columbiachapel #familyvacation
Things I have LOVED from my trip to the States. Se Things I have LOVED from my trip to the States. Seeing family after four years. Pennsylvania scenery and cute little mailboxes, Target (!!!) with Starbucks and built-in cup holders in the caddy, the comfort (ac, carpeting, space, closets, food), seeing my niece’s horseback riding lesson, malls 😁 We’re in NYC for our last leg before France.

Battery Park where we lived when Juliet was born, Bryant Park where I was invited to church for the 2nd time (and I said no again), lower east side where Matthieu and I lived when we were first married before we left for East Africa.
