I finally have internet so I can reconnect with the world! The last few days have been a whirlwind but we're finally in France!
The first two days we were in London where we met our group. There is about 50 of us, mostly girls which I expected, and from all over the country. We walked around a lot, went to some pubs, and did a city tour. I went and saw a British musical with some girls, it was called Blood Brothers and apparently is very famous in the UK. I took some great pictures but my camera died and I can't find the charger so I can't upload them now :( Everyone in London was very nice and thought our "accents'' were funny. I ate a lot of fish and chips and other pub food, and their beer was very good.
We left London at 3:30 am on Saturday and flew to Nice. From there we took a bus to Cannes, about 45 minutes away. Cannes is absolutely beautiful, and the weather is in the low 60's right now. We arrived at the College International de Cannes, where we will be for the next 2 weeks before we go to Paris. We have French classes 3 hours a day in the morning and the afternoons are free. Our college is right on the beach of the Mediterranean Sea and it is gorgeous. We didn't go out last night because we were all so jet lagged, but hopefully we will tonight. Italy is not far so I'm hoping to go there, as well as maybe Monaco or back to Nice. It's strange not being able to speak the language but I'm excited to work on my French and get much better! All for now!
