Catch up..

so my computer is being gay so just read the text below and you should be able to figure out which pictures go with which text... sorry for the inconvienence

So i haven't written in a long time... 

First off--- i went to the Loire valley and visited  a bunch of castles...

Recently we have gone on a trip to Strasbourg(which is like a small german town in France). We were able to have the typical Alsacian meal- sour crout and pig- literally there was every part of a pig on my plate- heart and all: A typical man's kind of meal(i was thinking of Mike McGlaughlin when i was eating it). As for me, I was unable to scarf down everything because the thought of eating pig heart didn't really role with me. But i did try everything so i can say i have eaten pig heart.

We also visited Mont St Michel. This is a huge abbey in the middle of the english channel. Probably one of the funniest days of my life... My friend marissa decided to buy the fugliest hat ever that was like a hikers hat, bright orange, with "Mont St. Michel" written across the top and to top it off she paid my friend Megan to wear it all day. Here are a few pics just to give you an idea. I laugh at everything and i could not resist cracking up everytime i saw Megan wearing it. But wait... IT GETS BETTER.. As we were doing the guided tour in mont st michel, the orange hat flies off over the edge of the abbey(as you can see in the pictures it is very windy). When this happens me and megan just look at each other wide-eyed and start busting up laughing.. then we look over and marissa is jumping over the edge with about 4 ft on the ledge -- she is not going to loose the hat! Anyways, after I thought Marissa was going to die getting the orange hat we decided that everyone needed to sign it in memory of the trip and the suicide saving by Marissa. 

I also have gone to the beaches of Normandie- almost got left here in paris for that trip because the metro wasn't working but luckily my director decided by persuasion of some of my sweet friends to have the bus come pick me up on way out of the city- lucky day for me! it was my favorite place by far. Walking on the beaches and through the american cemetery made WWII so much more real to me. It was very impressionalble. here are some pics..

 

Lastly I want to tell you about a crazy experience that just happened- this is the story told by my friend- long story short- she got a 50 euro fine on the metro but the way the story plays out is hilarious: here it is... click here  http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=72623436804
