Today was our last day of class and for that we had a Mini Spectacular (performance) with our French classes to show the staff for the summer program that we actually learned something. It was pretty entertaining to watch the different classes perform their skits. The staff said their goodbyes to us and it seemed as if they were happy that the summer program was over, but sad to see us go. A few of them got a bit choked up. They put on a little banquet gathering thing for us before lunch with champagne and drinks and snacks that were really delicious. At the reception we had to say goodbye to our classmates that were leaving the following day and later that night. Its kind of sad to say bye even though we dont all know each other but we spent a month together everyday except sunday. Its back to just Tasha and I, which is a little weird because we got so used to having other people around.
The weather was really nice today for a change. It has been so cold and rainy the whole time we were here minus the first few days which were really nice. After resting for a few hours we decided to go out around paris and walk around. We walked around near the Paris Opera and intentionally got lost in the streets which was fun but we still managed to find our way to where we needed to go without problems. Because today is friday the louvre is free so we decided to go check it out again and see the things we didnt get to the last time we were there. We edned up spending 3 hours looking at paintings and walking around. We then walked over to the Jardin de Tuilieries (garden) where there was a carnival going on so we took a ride in the farris wheel and saw the city which was really beautiful. It was quite romantic as the sun was setting...haha! Then we headed home after eating ice cream and cotton candy and some dinner.
