Mini-Golf in the mountains

On Sunday, we checked into new home, Hotel Chili, which is all self-contained apartments. The accommodation was simple but was made up for by the giant lawn with Mini-Golf course, free range chickens, and playground within walking distance. And FREE LAUNDRY!!! Needless to say, Sue was in heaven. We played Mini-golf that night and Sue kicked Tom's butt. Embarrassing...

Getting Settled in the Pyrenees

We spent a lazy day in and around our hotel, casually visiting Luz Saint Sauveur, about 10 minutes from our hotel. We also drove up to Gavarnie, the famous Cirque in the region. There weren't much in the ways of views as the mountains were in the clouds.

SAT Week

We have SATs from back home this week. Mrs. Jeanene, the American lady from our church, is giving the exams to us every day at her house. This morning, we had Reading Comprehension (my favorite), and Reading Definitions. Then, we went to school, ate at the cafeteria, and took the afternoon classes. They are still mean to Juliette.
