highlights

hello all. i don't have that much time, so i will keep this short and sweet.

yesterday during lunch i went to a beautiful park in rennes called Thabor. it was so so so amazing. first of all, it was HUGE- with so many different gardens and statues. secondly, it had the most amazing flowers i have ever seen. i will definitely be going back because the two hours i spent there were not nearly enough! we got caught in the rain on the way back to school. nothing new! last night i went for a run and hung out with my host mom. after dinner, we went to her neighbor's house. he is a priest. it was a lot of fun. when we got back, my host mom invited me to go to some sort of spa with her on sunday...should be interesting! all i could really understand is that there are big jacuzzi-style pools to swim in?

tonight i am going rennes for tombees de la nuit. it is a week-long festival type event in the city. they have a bunch of musicians and many other performers. today, i will be going to Thabor again for some sort of show. i am really excited!

tomorrow, we have an excursion to Broceliande. It's a forest, but that is the extent of what i know! still, i am really excited. saturday, i plan on going to the market in rennes with my host mom...and sunday the spa? ha. should be a fun weekend.

oh, by the way. francisco manuel is too funny. today he brought me a lavender flower. and he was 20 minutes late to class. and he told a blonde joke... in french. haha. he's awesome.

much peace and love from rennes to you!
