This morning we decided to pack the car and go after lunch so I could do the washing. This is when I checked out and was told we stayed one day too long. Anyway we made our way across the south of France then we turn right to the centre to head north ...

... for anyone suffering from cardiac problems, claustrophobia, pregnancy, hearing problems, respiratory problems etc. Luckily we survived undamaged. We had hoped to have another trip up the Puy de Dome but the next day was cloudy, though still warm, so we went to the supermarket and then relaxed by the pool, ready for our next journey, to Bourges

... the end I could have kept on going. The scenery was amazing and the people canadians ans Austrians were a lot of fun. We are now on the road in the south of france heading for Spain in a brand new Peugot 206. Whether we get there is another question as there are so many beautiful places along the way. The weather has turned lousy with it raining all day today and really cold. Tomorrow we will head off again and see where the road takes us. Take care Carol

... Apart from a French motor home parked beside the main block, we are the only ones here. We parked at a distance from them because the sun was finally out and the pitch we chose had the most exposure to the setting sun. Much good it did us, because within the hour the clouds had arrived and an hour after that we were in the middle of a spectacular thunderstorm. It's now raining steadily and we've decided bed is the only option.

... is in our class invited us to her house for the weekend in the big city. We went shopping during the day at an actual mall : ) and ate some delicious Mac Do's. (McDonald's). We pre-drank, tried some Absinthe, drank some vodka, pigged out on some pizza and all of us girls got ready. I think everyone was there, Kate, Stacie, Chelsea, Katie, Victoria, Ruby, Ashlee, Jutta and Thais. We then went to a small party with Thais's friends, drank some more and headed to the club. The BBOX ...

Woke up at 8 and left for Maison De La Culture without breakfast. Attended Yoon Hang's Q&A 'Expresso' session at 10am. The sessions were running late as the first french one took nearly half an hour. Mine was ok- not stellar but not bad. The 2 french forum heads said some nice things like it was seductive, very surprising and well done. Then we went to eat at Casino Cafeteria across the street with Daniel. And after ...

... all introduced at the beginning of the session. And all 4 were present except for the brit team. Ate dinner at Univers again. Went back at about 10ish but took a small walk up the hill. All the snow has already melted and none in sight. So different from when we came here last Sat. It's also not so cold now. Started packing. Sad that the Clermont Film Festival is ending.

... Sao Paulo. We then went walking Old Town at night, found the majestic catheral and also the restuarant that Emmerline was telling us about in the afternoon-The C******nay. The food was good and it looked so classic in ambience from the outside. Somehow it is more romantic in France/Clermont-Ferrand. Then we went back at about 11ish to the Hotel together with Carlos. Watched Clerk II making of feature. Slept at 1.
