Yesterday I got a tour of the European Parliament! I met K there for lunch and ended up camping out in his office to use his internet for work. Our internet has been slow at best and totally unreliable/nonfunctioning at worst. This, of course, has made work difficult, but hopefully we will be able to figure out something else soon.
Anyway, the Parliament is a very beautiful building. It’s very tall and was built only about 12 years ago, so everything is very modern. Here is a picture:
Everyone is pretty laid back there. The security is pretty loose as well, though I had to get my own temporary ID card for the day with my picture on it and everything! A fun souvenir.
Also! There has been a little change in plans. The parliament is sending K to

AH!!!! I adore Strasbourg! That's where we spent our second two weeks on my trip. I'm sorry to say that it wasn't very warm, but we were there at the end of February, not the beginning of March... I'm not sure how much of a difference that will make, but we definitely had cold, rainy days while we were there (though not all the time). You have to visit the cathedral and check out the astronomical clock that is in there, it's outstanding!
Oh, P.S. You'll love the EU building, it's such a great design!
