Let's Get Lost

Here it is! The moment you have all been waiting for--a tour of the Kartause! Or as we affectionately call it, our home.Let's start with the most important room in our house:

That's right, the bathroom folks. Fun fact, for the first month, one of our lights was burnt out, so it was super dark for awhile--I actually thought the walls were yellow. Got a new light, walked in the bathroom, and immediately "a whole new world" went through my head. Also, there is a lot of calcium in the water, so we have to scrub the shower every day...or at least we're supposed to.

Next we move to the bedroom. There are four of us that live in here,and right now it looks a little bit like a winter wonderland (since we recently cut out snow flakes and hung them from the ceiling with dental floss; we also stole the ficus from down the hall to use as a Christmas tree--just making use of our resources over here)

When you walk out into the hall, this is what you see. We live on third floor, in case you were wondering.

When you continue down the hall, you come upon this quaint little gathering place.

...then you continue on, and it leads to the stairs

look! stairs!

...that lead to second floor

After completing yet another set of stairs, you reach 1st floor; this is the way we take to get to all of our classes, as well is where all the guys live

Aaaand finally the last set of stairs! These lead you to ground floor.

Once you're outside, you come upon these huge doors. They lead to the courtyard (if you turn around), but this view is looking at where we just came from (ground floor)

Since I didn't take pictures of ground floor, we'll just move on to my next favorite place: the Mensa! Here is where all the wonders of wonders of food are served to us 4 days of the week.

"What's for dinner tonight? Pork? Oh really...maybe I'll make a sandwhich...."

The mensa

So this is a view of the courtyard once you leave the Mensa. The buildings in the middle aren't always there, it's just for the Christmas market being held here for the week.

...another view of the courtyard

The hallway leading to the audi-min, where we have Medieval History and our Nursing class

Same hallway, different direction. You could say that it leads to the audi-max, which is where we have Philosophy of the Human Person, and Ilsa has Christian Moral Principles.

When you go through the door in the picture above, you come to this hallway. It leads to the Kolbe room and 6ths track, which is where I have CMP and where the rest of the ladies are housed.

To be continued...
