We have seen quite a few places and I have two appointments today. We were looking at villas or single houses because of the dog, but last night we saw some mid-rise and high-rise apartments that had gyms, saunas, and driving ranges, not to mention high-end finishes on everything. Neither of us golf and I don't know how much I would use the gym, but the sauna was great! The last place we saw had a pool which Ian an I would definitely use. It has a smaller sauna, but they have one and it isn't quite as high. It is near the river and has a great river view. It is probably the swankest place we will ever live in so it is very tempting.
Here is a picture of Ian in the villa courtyard:
It was also very nice on the inside, but does not have a gym, pool, or sauna. It is on the first floor, making it easier to get the dog in and out.
The houses we've seen have been very old. Houses are rare and expensive. I don't think we can afford a house with new appliances and bathrooms. Also, you have to deal with the landlord instead of a maintenance person for maintenance. I have a feeling we will end up in that mid-rise with the pool. Curt really wants a gym. We have a Bow-Flex and treadmill coming from Egypt, but somehow he thinks a gym will be better.
