I went to France and all I got was national pride....


Salut...

Ca va? Ca va bien. I hope everyone else is doing well too. Last night and today have all blurred together into one giant blurb of time. We went to the French theatre last night-interesting experience. 2 hours and 20 minutes of French humor in french meant that I took a nap and laughed when everyone else did. I couldn't tell you what happened though. We went out afterwards to the Sciences-Po "hangout", a bar called The Frog and Princess, a semi-French, quite loud pub with some gorgeous boys. None spoke English though, which was a major bummer haha. http://www.frogpubs.com/ is the website. Interesting place.

Today we went to Arte, which is a major French and German television station that is looking to unite the EU by featuring television programs in French and German with producers, directors, and stories from each country that are relevant to both and the entire union. It's a cool concept and one not found in many places. Yet, here it seems to work quite well. We had to delay Versailles due to the unplanned Arte trip, but it was worth it to see a major television station.

Anyways, I'm now in Normandie, the host kids are calling, and I must go!

Au revoir!
