Alors! I am due for an update on my internship situation. In short, I absolutely love it! I don't think I could have asked for a cooler group to work in. I am in the R&D section of EDF, called ICAME (I forgot what it stands for ...

Yesterday I got some company exploring when Jana arrived from California, and Emily came over to our apartment from her dorm at Ecole Polytechnique. It was beautiful weather - mid 70s and perfectly sunny. We headed straight for the Eiffel Tower to walk around. There were people ...
