I finally got the pictures up from the past weekend! YAY!
For dinner last night, we had a salad with HUGE chunks of potato and grilled salmon--SO SO SO delicious! My host mom put out different dressings we could eat it with...one of them was a tube of a mixture made by Heinz that is half mayonnaise and half ketchup. Apparently its really common here! I ate it with a chunk of potato, and it was actually very good!
We had a great group last night at Australian Bar -- most of the students from UGA, and then some from Columbia, some from Switzerland, one from Mexico, and one from England. VERY FUN!
My presentation went really well today in our Le Midi class. It was the last day of the semester! We have our last Accent Francais class today as well. My class is doing some sort of activity out of the classroom today - some assignment around the city - but I am not quite sure what the concept is yet.
Tonight, after dinner, I am going to pack, because tomorrow morning we leave for PARIS!!! We do not have to be to the train station til 10 am, so I will get to sleep in about an hour later then usual.
It is about 2.5-3 hours on the train to Paris, if I remember correctly. In Paris, we are taking a class from 9-1 in the morning, with free time all day after that. We have some really cool things in mind to do during the free time. Hopefully we get everything done!
We got to choose and separate into 3 groups with different themes for Paris, there is: Francophone Paris, Napoleon Paris, and Medieval Paris. I chose the medieval one, because I LOVE this time period! We'll be touring the city to see different monuments, museums, etc. that correlate to this. This is going to be the best 3 credit hours of my college career.
I'll have to use the computer at our hotel to keep yall updated on what we are doing!
Next time I write, I'll be à Paris!
CIAO!!

Holy Castle Cakes... these pictures are amazing!!! It sounds and looks so different over there (in an awesome way, of course). Paris will be nuts too. Make sure to ask for freedom fries when you go out to eat. Watch out for those suave French guys, I saw the movie Taken a few weeks ago and don't want to have to come and rescue you. Have fun!!!
