Today I
woke up and went running first thing. I
did that for about an hour the I ate and got ready to meet Hannah to go into
town. I was able to show her how to use the buses so that was pretty cool. We
decided to take the bus somewhere new and got completely lost. Which was
totally fine because we both love walking and we both were able to see a new
part of the city! But while we were lost a French guy asked us for directions
and because we had no idea where we were we couldn’t give him any and he seemed
a little irritated. Oh well! We ended up making it to our desired destination and
stopped into a tea shop where the tea was adorable and our waiter was
hilarious. He was so lively, outgoing and charming. It was a lot of fun. After
that we walked around and went to the tourism office so that Hannah could get a
better city map and bus map. Then we went to a café and drank some water
(fancy) and later bought towels for Hannah. Really the whole day was spent
walking and laughing around France! Hannah and I observed the French street
fashion for me, it’s really hit or miss. I don’t know what the deal is, but the
young men, and some women, really have this thing for leopard prints accents to
clothing. But on a more important note, I saw my first man wearing a scarf
while holding a baguette, so that can be marked off the bucket list.
Though this
was all good fun, by far the highlight of my day was getting internet. I had
been without it for almost 4 days and considering I am a young female, that is
like totes a life time and I can’t even #horrible. Hopefully you realize that last sentence was
a joke… But yeah! It was really nice to be able to talk to my family and
friends again and let them know that my fate was not that of Taken or Taken 2.
After
catching up online, Hannah and I went shopping at a French equivalent to a
Walmart and it was so cool! I do love France. The people, the food, the
buildings, the parks, the Walmart rip offs, it’s all great!
I met up
with Maybe again tonight for a little bit to give him a treat because he had
finished his summer internship! Whoop Whoop! Tomorrow, him, Hannah and I are
going to make dinner together so that should be fun. Also tomorrow, Hannah and
I are going to go to the Porcelain exposition in town. Limoges is known for
their porcelain so I cannot wait to see it all!
That’s
about it for the day. I hope you all are doing well!!
