Bonjour everyone. Yesterday I went on a day trip to Chartres and here are some pictures of the huge and gorgeous chateau. The Accent study abroad Agency that I'm with comes with two day trips: one to Chartres and the other to Versailles (that's in March). All the other things they offer you have to pay for. They're offering a weekend trip to Normandy and Brittany March 16 to March 18. It's a four hour bus ride to get there so I'm excused from school :) None of the other girls are going so it's just me, clint and matt from the hawaii group.. along with other schools such as San Diego Univ, and American Univ. Well, I just want to tell everyone what the first picture is about. On our itinerary paper that was handed to us when we first got to paris it said to meet infront of the Opera Bastille at 8:45am for the day trip to Chartres. I got there by 8:30am, a little early but NO ONE was there. I figured I was the earliest and I waited... 9:00am rolled by... and still no one and NO bus. I called someone and apparently there was an e-mail that got sent out that said there was a time change to meet, 9:00 am. Darn, i was an hour and a half early. Luckily, my friend Jamie did the same thing (well that's because she had called me the previous night asking what time we need to meet at and I told her what I had thought, 8:45am. heh. I dragged her down with me). I eventually met up with Jamie and we went to a cafe around the neighborhood until it was the RIGHT time to meet. Ha, so that's our early morning coffee session picture :)
