Holidays

It's been a while since I last posted something and that was because I just got back yesterday from a being away. I went to a different part of Bretagne with one of the English teachers and her family. We stayed with her family-in-law, and I had great fun playing with her 3 kids. My French definately improved, as I now understand kids language a bit better. We went to the beach and went for walks, although it was very cold. No sign of any proper snow yet. I ate something called a gallette de saucisse, which is a crepe or pancake (except they are not sweetened) wrapped around a sausage. It was very nice actually. My new name is King as the little girl had difficulties with my name, and avoided saying my name for the whole weekend, then suddenly on Monday she came out with King, which is quite funny as it is an English word. It is close enough to Kim. So I have 4 days of holidays left, then back to school. I haven't really started my 2nd essay, so still have a lot of work to do. But I'll get there eventually. Like Mike I am taking full advantage of this experience. It is a nice day today, so I went to the market. I love French markets, we don't really have a market like that at home. Looks like a day of not doing very much for me. Roll on next week!
