Fruit and photos
I was cut off last time because Nadine told me that we had to got see see her mom soon. So the first photo on the previous post is of me of Sarah at Charles de Gaulle while we were waiting to go to Toulouse. People askes us if we were in some sort of special army b/c we were wearing our blazers. The 2nd photo is of Clementine and I on top of the end of the dune at sunset on saturday night, near the restaurant we went to.
I have been so impressed by the food. The portions are less and the food is richer. But I've already had more french fries that I have in a long time. In the back yard here there are fig, plum, pear, and apricot trees...mmm it's so good! At the gradma's house just now she had a really big garden with tions of grapes that we just ate off the vine! And tomatoes and lettuce and tons of other stuff.
The 1st picture I took today from the backyard. I guess this is the first day during the summer when it has been pretty hot. It was probably around 90, so the pool felt pretty good. Nadine is getting out of it in the picture. The 2nd is Antoine, Nadine, Claire, Benoit, Emmy Lou, and Clementine. Next is of my room when I was unpacking. I have 2 beds! The 4th is of the dune, it was big!
I better go eat some dinner now, then Nadine is going to take me into Toulsoue, since I'm right next to it and I haven't been there yet, for some ice cream, then to pick up Antoine at the train station.
Peace ane Love,
Liz

I'm so glad to hear from you! I have been on the same dune a couple of years ago. It's gigantic and it's a heck of a walk to the top.
well, don't worry, it's normal, that you want to hang out with the exchange students, if you don't get to attached to them too much in school, everything will be alright. It's harder to get to know the real culture, if you don't make real french friends. Of course, you can hang out with other exchange students, but try not to do it too often.
Your house looks gorgeous, and I bet you are having a great time. I know French food is sooo good! I just had dinner with Philippe's parents and I love the cheese and wine. Since I got back to Germany I had to buy all new jeans, because I lost all the weight, I gained in the US. ;-) Althought I'm not moving all day long! ,-)
Tomorrow, is my big latin test, and I hope I'll pass. If not, I'll have to go back into 11th grade. So, hopefully not. I study a lot, like everyday for 4-5 hours, and I#m so glad, when I'm done with that stuff!
well, I should go back to Latin!
Have a great week and a wonderful school start!
love you ltos,
Svea
