Week 3

Hello Everyone!

Well the time has flown by! I am already half way through! It's crazy. This week was great. For the most part it was just a normal week except for Friday. Friday we got out of class early because we had a party that night for music and danse folklorique. That afternoon I went shopping with some friends for the "solde" which is a huge sale everywhere in France for like a month or so. The prices are really low! :)  That night, the party was fantastic! A Breton Group came to teach us the traditional breton danse and music and they were dressed in costume and everything! It was really fun! This week we are dog sitting for some family and the dog is about as big as I am, but she is really sweet! I will try to get a picture with her. :) The french is getting easier and easier. I am thinking in French for the most part now so that is really cool! The weather is warming up and we went to the beach yesterday. It is gorgeous! We are going again today because it is even warmer outside today than yesterday! :) Alright well my time is up, but I will talk to you again next week! Thanks again for your prayers! à bientot :)

Week 2

Hey everyone!

Ok this is going to be a fast blog because I lost track of time and spend all of my computer time emailing my family! oops! lol... Well, this week was pretty busy. Monday was a national holiday so we had the day off and we only had school for 2 days this week because we had an excursion this Thursday and Friday.  The excursion was really cool, but it rained the whole time! On Thursday we went to Mont St. Michel and the World War 2 museum.  Both things were really awesome! On Friday we visited the German cemetery from WW2, the American cemetery (located on Omaha Beach), and the tapestry of Bayeux. The cemeteries were eye opening and astonishing. I took lots of pictures. The tapestry was really cool but I wasn't allowed to take pictures. Alright well my time is up so I will have to tell you ,ore about this week when I get back home. Thanks again for all your prayers and I will talk to you next week!

Week 1

Hey everyone!

Well, my first week has gone well! It has been hard, but I am understanding pretty well. The first day we did not have school but we took a tour of St. Brieuc. It is a really pretty town and I will have lots of pictures when I get back. :)  School is a bit difficult but it is not too bad. My teachers are nice and I really like the other students on the trip. One girl who I have gotten pretty close to is actually a christian! I am not alone. :)  I am starting to think in both english and french so that is a bit weird. Our group took a trip to Fort Lalatte and Erquy on Friday. It was beautiful! I took a lot of pictures that will be on facebook when I get back. :)  Yesterday I went to an art rock festival.  It was fun and the music was great, but the french are a little crazy.  I am going again this afternoon so we will see what happens today. Again, thank you for all of your support and prayers! I can't wait for what is to come and to come home and share it with you all!

Lots of Love!
