How To Make A Karate Board Breaking Machine

January 30th: New Window Treatments In The master bathroom

Another great thing When Having a new hobby in a foreign country to learn IS A Whole bunch of new vocabulary.
Window treatment: the translation into French would be the treatment of windows, in English, el tratamiento de las ventanas.
Hm. It Does not Mean Much In Our native languages, nor do We Have (as far as I know) a proper translation. Actually it means: "Window Treatments to add refinement and style OTHERWISE dull, boring windows. Shutters and awnings decorate the outside of your house, while blinds, shades, cornices, trim and draperies enhance the inside appeal".
Ca vous en bouche un coin, hein? You're amazed, eh ? Esta asombrado, cierto?

Anyway, we added a blind to the window, since it was pointing directly to our neighbor's windows - I am sure he missed seeing us in the bathroom...

Here are the highlights of this amazing performance:

Avant - Before - Antes
Durante - Pendant - Meanwhile
Apres - despues - after

Merci mon cheri!
