Dinner in Nice...very Nice



Prom, Britta?

Mais oui!



Un beau matin

Here are the kids prepping for #7 on the Eagan AM countdown...pretty cool back ground.  Mariam says hello to you all and Amanda would like to have her senior photos taken here!  We spent an entire afternoon in les Baux, shopping and lunching in the 78 degree sunshine.  Everyone is safely off to family stay. They are well prepared, excited, and a bit nervous.  We lot forward to hearing all about it on the way to Nice Sunday.



C'est Nice!

Everyone is back from family stays happy and healthy. We just arrive at our hotel, check out our view!  Tow more days of paradise...75 and sunny, too!  The other photo is from the front of our tour boat in Cassis, touring the fjords...wow!

Checking in

Mme. Albertson, Mme. Retka, and I have checked in, left messages, or actually seen every one of our students since they have been in their family stays. Kids have been to school, the markets, Aix, Nimes, Arles, boating, school, and even the university...quite a lot of memories in a couple short days!  Bonsoir!

Pont du Gard...on arrive!

All is well...with each passing day, more and more of our students are makng plans to either travel, study abroad, or even move here!  They are all so open-minded, excited and willing to try al the new foods, places, and take in everything.  We are so proud of all the French they are using in preparation for meeting families tonight.  

Palais des Papes

Working on the Eagan AM countdown...Avignon is a beautiful walled city and home of the 1/2 bridge to nowhere, le Pont d'Avignon.

Avignon, nous arrivons!

Off to see Avignon today. Yesterday, one of our beautiful American girls was kissed (on the cheek, no worries) by a French boy in Chamonix...she can now cross it off her bucket list!  The photo is a snapshot on the way down from the mountain in the gondola.
