Normandie

Normandie

I've been meaning to post these pictures since October, which is when I took this trip to Normandie with my classmates Gaby, Tyler & Fabio. We had a great time that included some adventures such as:

  1. Me drinking lots of tea after Fabio told me I couldn't because he didn't want to stop to go to the bathroom
  2. Me panicking when Fabio really wouldn't stop to let me go to te bathroom an hour later
  3. Being lost in the darkest, most middle-of-nowehere I have ever been (everytime our headlights hit the road, we saw stray cats and other unidentifiable road animals)
  4. Realizing about 3 months later that "a driote" means "go right" and "tout driote" means "go straight" -- this information would have saved us from adventure #3
  5. Being pulled over by the French police in a routine roadblock (in the darkest, most middle-of-nowhere, where there could not have been more than 2 cars passing per hour)

The list goes on and I hope that I will get it together soon to complete the story. Other news -- I'm excited that it's finally Springtime in Paris! I had a great trip home last week to go to Lacy's beautiful wedding (so now I'm a little homesick and missing everyone more than usual). I got put on the field project that I wanted (yay!) and classes end in about 3 weeks (double yay! because I won't have to go out to Cergy anymore).
