Today is my last day :( I slept in and Claire and I had pastries in front of the TV. After scratching our mosquito bites for a while, we played Wii Fit and then stepped it up to badminton outside. However, it got kinda hot, so we moved back inside and I started to pack. Then it was lunchtime and we made our own salads. It was a very refreshing meal on a summer day. For dessert we tried the various sweets that Jean got from Spain. After eating, we checked in for m...

Today was kind of a lazy day... We woke up late, and ate in front of the TV. After that, I took a shower and did some homework until lunchtime. For lunch we had pizza and salad. The pizza was delicious with the French cheese. Laure got out Floyd, the rabbit, and he ran around while we ate. After that, I did some more homework and played Wii with Claire until dinner time. We had BBQ and fries. Yum. And real BBQ. Oh it was delicious. A nice warm homey meal on a col...

The particular kind we had was from the mountains where Jean's parents were- there used to be a lot of Italian immigrants there that wanted to make raviol...

We slept in late today and came down to a delicious breakfast of homemade pain au chocolat and joined Laure on the couch. After that we made the trek upstairs to watch more tv :) after sitting for so long, we decided to take the dog Sanka for a walk. He took a dip in the pond and we headed for the wheat fields. We didn't have the right shoes on, so we just walked the country road. It was SO pretty. We came back and went in after Sanka took another dip in the pond...
