Yesterday (Thursday)....I went to the National History Museum/Army Museum/Where Napoleon's Tomb is. Jared and I went there in the morning walked all through the Army part and the history part and still hadn't seen Napoleon's Tomb - but we learned it was in the Dome Church which is connected to and part of the museum but you had to know that before you could figure out how to get there. So after a few hours there - I walked from there to a really cool fashion museum, and then walked to the national library where there were really cool fountains and statues. Then I walked from Strasbourg to the nearest metro station i could find (MY FEET HURT) and went to the hotel - I finally did some laundry - and then the professors took about half of the group, the ones that showed up for the meeting anyway - to get ice cream. I have lots of pictures from there - but check back later for them...
Today - We got up early and went to Chartres. We toured the Cathedral and walked through all the bugs outside (there were tons and they were like little lovebugs that just stick to you) and then rode the train back. (About an hour away)
Then we went to a Greek restaurant to have a group dinner and we were the only ones there for a little while but then a big group of people from germany that were really nice showed up. We talked to them and they were soooo funny - and they were singing and dancing - it was a riot! Then they sent us back to the hotel to pack- because we leave for normandy tomorrow!
Ill post pictures on here later!
Love - April
