We finally got an apartment! We will officially be moving out of the hotel on Saturday. It will be nice to be in a place of our own, although I have no idea how long it will take us to get the internet hooked up. I may go crazy while I wait for that.
Yesterday afternoon Robert and I met with the realtor (because apartments here are rented through realtors) and picked up the apartment keys. We were given about 5 keys. All of them were kind of old fashioned looking, but we were most intrigued by this one:
I didn't even know anyone still used keys like this - except in a castle or old cemetery. But this is a pretty typical apartment key in this area. I didn't have a ruler with inches, but I measured it in centimeters and converted the length. The key is 4-1/2 inches long! Craziness!
You sure don't want to carry these keys in your pocket!
