Getting ready to go

We are indeed in the home stretch of the Countdown to France that has been going on since August 25.  Today four of the girlies and I decided we needed to practice.  Doing what you ask?  Conjugating verbs?  Mais non! I respond.  I grabbed the keys to a mini-bus and we decided to go to Guglhupf, a tasty little place just right down the road from school. 

We practiced eating!  Une bonne idée, n'est-ce pas?  And here's what we sampled...



and
We were a little thirsty, so we sipped this
We sat outside and discussed the menu at the Café du Commerce, where we will have dinner our last night in Paris, the weather forecast for Paris and Provence, what to pack, what Eugene, our ACIS tour manager, will be like, the pyjama party the girls plan to have one night at the hotel, you know, just girl stuff.  Hmmm... wonder what we will be doing this time next week??

Bon appétit, girlies!
