Un mardi

A little peak at a normal day in the life of an exchange student in France!

 

6.30. I woke up to this. Aaah.

12.00. Today was strike at school (the French love to go on strike, we have one at least every other month!) - meaning the canteen was closed and so we took the opportunity to go in to town and eat.

...and do some window-shopping.

Since every student at Lycée Marlioz needed lunch and Aix-les-Bains isn't the biggest city of them all - and only has so many bakeries and fast-food resaurants - we ended up just buying food at the supermarket and sat in the park.

And even though we were short on time (our lunch break is an hour and a half) we did have time to pose in front of the camera!

Delphine, Juliette et Sara.

Enfin on peut sortir les chaussures de printemps!

The streets were full of people eating lunch outside - though with 20 degrees in the air, I guess that's not too surprising.

19.30. After I finished school at 17h30 I went straight to track practice. Today was awfully hard. Though the nice weather made up for it.

21.00. Dinner time = escargots! First time for me, and about time for that matter. Not a very particular taste actually. But yummy. 

22.00 Since we eat so late I pretty much go straight to bed after dinner. 

(...and tomorrow: SKI!)
