Vacances!

Hey Everyone! I hope you all had a great easter break!!! I was so thrilled that I got to talk to some of you! For easter, I spent the weekend with a friend of mine, Adelle, from PA, and her host parents at their beach house in Saint Cart. The weather was gorgeous, I collected so many seashells! We spent the weekend relaxing on the beach, eating wonderful food, talking long walks, knitting, and of course, speaking french all the time! It was so relaxing and a wonderful break from my somewhat crazy host family.

The week passed by as it normally does. I went to class, which is sometimes interesting, sat in cafes with friends, knitted, walked a lot, and other things of that nature. Friday was absolutely gorgeous here and I spent the day walking around the Parc du Thabor. All the flowers were blooming, I think I am going to miss the parc the most when I leave. Oh, and I also joined this theatre group here in rennes. Its just a few international students and were putting on a spectacle on May 7th. It is so much fun and the teacher, Pascal, is crazy in an awesome sort of way.

I don't know if everyone knows this, but I am on a two week vacation right now! My plans are as follows:

Paris

Barcelona

Rome

Florence

Venice

Milan.

I leave on Monday and I am literally jumping up and down, im so excited to go! Sunshine, warmth, and new places...my kind of vacation! Not like France really hasn't been one big vacation!

The really crazy part is that when I come back I have four weeks left! A part of those four weeks will be spent studying for finals, and the rest we will be traveling around France whenever we can get away!

Oh, and I also have to find a dress for Pat and Jana's wedding!!!!!!!

I'll try and pop into an internet cafe to let you all know how my travels are going!

As the italians would say....Ciao!!!!!
