Wow, today started at 6:45 am, loading the bus at the university to go to Mt St Michel, and the city St Malo...We get on the bus to hear our enthusiastic director Marc Melin: "un, deux, trois, bonjour!"...I'll get a picture with him eventually, he is the director of the program that I'm in at the university, and he goes on the excursions and shows us things on the bus. That picture is Mt St Michel, a nice island place that can't really be described in words, but it is incredible. After a great few hours of walking around and taking in the sights there, we headed to St Malo, a city that was bombed during WWII and rebuilt..Now there are a ton of tourist places and creperies mixed in with some good landmarks like chateaus and churches. As I see more of these it's easy to take them for granted, but there are unique features about each place, they are really stunning. So it was a great day of seeing the sites, eating on the rocks at Mt St Michel, and discovering great local crepes with housemade dark chocolate and local cider at St Malo. Now time to get back to school for the week before more excursions next Friday afternoon and Sunday!
