On Friday morning, July 24, right on time (very un-French like), we got a knock on the door and the movers arrived to start packing our things.
Leila enjoyed one last morning out on her stoop! She would stay out there for hours watching below.
While they packed, we sat in the hallway and just roamed through as needed. I always find it a little bit awkward when someone else is packing your things and you're not supposed to lift a finger.
When we moved in, the guy pulling the lift got stuck in traffic so they carried everything up the stairs. Luckily, we only lived on the third floor (fourth in US standards). This time the lift arrived and they made many less trips to the truck. This lift system is normal in Paris because of the small elevators and staircases. And it's very popular right now. It's the time of the year when a lot of Parisians are moving!
Before we knew it, the rooms were empty.
When we did our walk-through to turn in our keys, this is how we found Leila. I guess she really didn't want to go.
Thanks so much for sharing this awesome info! I am looking forward to see more postsby you! studio city moving company
