Bonjour


I know I have not posted much this month at all but I have good reason. I did a study abroad in Europe. It was an absolutely amazing experience that I will never forget. We went to London, Paris, Normandy, Amsterdam, and Bayeux. For the first few days we stayed in London and Amsterdam where they spoke English so it was pretty easy to get directions, ride the "tube", and order food at a restaurant. It was not until we crossed into France that it truly felt like like we were in another country. I will never forget having to go to the bathroom for the first time in France. I was so shocked that you had to PAY for the bathroom, even in restaurants! Ordering food was always an adventure. My strategy was simply order what I could say. That always kept dinner interesting. This was the second time I have been to Paris but the first time I can really remember. What a beautiful city it was. This defiantly will not be my last time!
