Dear family
& friends,
We arrived in Saint-Brieuc, safe
and sound, last night at 8:15pm.
The flight to Charles de Gaulle airport
in Paris arrived on time at approximately 10:30am. We then hopped on the bus
that took us to Chartres, 1.5 hours outside of Paris. We picnicked in the park
of the famous 13th-century cathedral which we visited after lunch.
After spending about 2 hours in
Chartres, we were on the bus for another 4 hours to Saint-Brieuc. Upon arrival
in Saint-Brieuc, all the host families were there waiting for us :) Students
were tired, but very excited!
Tomorrow is Whit Monday (Pentecost),
which is a holiday in France. All businesses and schools will be closed. The
first day of class (which will mostly consist of an on-site orientation for the
students) will take place on Tuesday. In the meantime, the students are getting
to know their host families and enjoying a long weekend with them.
Check back for pictures of the first
day of class at the Igloo on Tuesday!
A bientôt,
Charlène.
