... were fab...really nice day walking around. Jason decided to watch villa on the internet instead of going to local french soccer game. they lost 2-1, maybe its better if he doesn't watch as they seemed to do better the last few games when he wasn't watching. Had a really good dinner tonight, regional specialty (crepes again) with apple cider.

heading south again tomorrow, and we'll see how far we get and where we end up.

... then you can continue into the bedroom. there is a door to the bedroom from the bathroom, but it only seems to open from the bedroom, so i needed jason to let me out after using the toilet.

Jason is now having a rest as it was over 3 hours of driving today, but i think i can tempt him to get up with the idea of happy hour.....

Ok, so I haven't been saying much but as you're all aware, I'm a man of few words. I've always been happy to hide behind the ...

... and monsters on display. They all have the style of a Jules Verne story (he came from Nantes). The craftmanship is wonderful and the detail is incredible. We will return in 2014 as they are building an enormous tree with plants and a ride on mechanical herons. Much better than Disney.

We are going south tomorrow to La Rochelle.

... up at 8am and drive 5hrs to Bordeaux for our 2pm tour of Château Mouton Phillippe Rothschild. Since this will be a 4hr drive there, 2-3hr tour and 4hr drive back we decide to cancel the trip. Now we can sleep in the next day and get up and chill for the day.

That is basically all we do in Nantes get some decent food and see a movie. Off to Mount Saint Michael tomorrow and we are kind of excited to see if it lives up to the photographs we have seen.

... respond to me in English so I give up and just speak English the whole time. While we were waiting for the movie to start one of the teachers came up to me and said it was great that I ate lunch with them today and I should do it more often. I think she's my favorite. Then the movie started. One teacher, Vanessa, kept shushing everyone and was so annoying. I think she has no idea how to have fun. She was the teacher that took all of my kids away from me that one time. She is ...

... my computer and Beauty and the Beast. I decided today would be a good time to ask my foyer about getting the internet. I go into the main office and ask what line I need to open up. The girl there tells me that there isn't a line there already; I would have to have one installed. Are you kidding me? I don't know if she just hates me or what, but that didn't make sense. This is a newer foyer and they don't have telephone lines hooked up? It will be WAY too expensive to ...

... for a while, talking about how I was settling in and everything (by chatting I mean he was talking and I was nodding and saying "oui, d'accord, ok, ça va bien, etc") He had to explain to me how the card worked (like I'd never had an ATM card before) and I had to sign it in front of him and he gave me the number I'm supposed to call if I lose it or it gets stolen. It was really a useless meeting. The card's cool looking though; I'll have to take a picture of it. After that I ...

... so many stairs I can't believe we actually made it. It was so awful. But we made it and I had to wait in the lounge for Lauren to fill out the papers. Then Marc, one of the head guys, showed us around. I think he was ****** that I was there cause he knew I didn't live in the foyer. Oh well. Then me and Lauren went to get something to eat and then we just went home. We were going to get together the next day to just walk around and get used to the town. I just went back home ...

... gezicht, maar de boei is overwonnen! Met behulp van de rubberboot maken we ook achter vast en opzij zodat we niet kunnen tollen als het water naar de andere kant gaat stromen over een paar uur. Nadat we het rubberbootje hebben voorzien van het motortje, varen we naar het plaatsje dat boven ons uit torent. 's avonds maken we provisorisch de reling zodat we niet buitenboord kunnen vallen tijdens het zeilen en kijken wat weemoedig naar de onderkant van de brug die ons lijkt te ...

... sans nouvelles de PL et Mélo, nos Rennais"), nous vidons presque un plein sac de pinottes. Il arrive 16 heures 30 ; pas de nouvelles de Mélodie et Pierre-Luc, mais pas non plus de Sarah. Les filles (Estelle et Ariane) partent à la recherche de cette dernière, et je garde le fort au cas où, à savoir l'appart d'Estelle. À leur retour, elles ramènent Sarah, qui n'a jamais rencontré la fille en question, finalement (elle réussira à la joindre ...
