stormin' norman-dy

and just like that, our time in paris was over and it was time to meet roni and benoit in normandy! we all took the train in first class style with our own cabin which we may or may not have spread our baggage and stuff everywhere so as to discourage any else from joining us...

see?! more self portraits!

it was a quick 2 hour train ride... not bad at all...

and then we found roni and benoit at the caen station where it was raining and much chillier than in paris! brrr! but that didn't stop us from going to bayeux for lunch and sitting outside! under a tent... and with heaters of course!

scrippsies in normandy!!

yummy gallette for lunch!

check out my awesome room! so pretty! i loved it! and huge!!! and next door to courts and across the short hall to sarahs and just down the way from roni's! it was so just like being back in the scripps dorms again... i kinda was ready to move right on back in!


later that afternoon, the girls had rehearsal so i managed to relax and read in the room and just enjoy. and then roni's grad school friend, shane, knocked on my door and the two of us went in to town and explored the cute seaside village (name of which i am forgetting) and had dinner at one of the restaurants. i was so grateful that shane was so sweet (and had a car) and willing to meet a stranger and hang out! i was just about ready to fall asleep when i heard the commotion of the wedding party coming home and so i leaped out of bed and hung out in courts room with the others until bed time.

I think you need to send the Scrippsies in Normandy picture to the Scripps Magazine. Too cute.

good job reading when there was a tv in your room! i would've been stuck in front of the thing, trying to perfect my fake french.
