We were given a tour of the litterature quartier and seen here is our program correspondant/mother to us all, Nathalie (I know she's scowling but she's really very lovely). Behind her is one of the three famous cafes where the great authors would come to write (Sartre, Camus etc.).
A typical dinner in Paris. On this night the waiters were particularly entertaining and once they discovered we were Americans (and thus are associated with Obama) they answered every request with a "YES WE CAN" in English. It was rather hilarious!

Alaina and I finally arrive in Paris after a very long day of traveling. Trust me, this was the best we were going to look:)
Hi, How fast you are to get a blog going. How fun for us to get to see a slice of your adventures!
ReplyDeleteLove, Ma
Yay! Blog! Very nice! I'm excited to follow along with you :) I must say, you're looking quite Parisienne with your new peacoat in the Musee Rodin picture! Très chic! Alaina tells me you guys are in Dijon now. Exciting! Let me know when you have a phone number I can call you at, because I'm dying to talk to you guys!
ReplyDeleteHi there Jackson! We all miss you incredibly here but I can still hear your voice inflections through your blog entries so that helps some. Include more videos ... and introduce your host family to us. (Plus it's also fun to hear the language in the background!) I hope you are creating wonderful memories and know that we'll all be talking about you tomorrow out at the farm when we're celebrating dad's birthday. :-)
