Chicken.

Last night I went to bed without posting. But it's okay, nothing really exciting happened yesterday.

We went to the school, for orientation, and sat around listening to them talk about boring stuff for a while. They said we won't get our schedules until the day before classes start, because French schools like to take their time with things.  After that we went and took a mini-tour of the campus, and then walked downtown to look at notable buildings and shops.  They left us at the bus office so that whoever wanted to could get a month-long bus pass, which I did.

My host mom asked me last night if I wanted to eat dinner with them and I told her I would, but then I fell asleep. I felt really bad.  They eat dinner really late here (around 9pm) and I didn't feel too well.  I was talking to Robina earlier (assistant program director) about my host family and she said that Yvon really likes to talk, and Claudie cooks really well.  I bet her chicken last night was really good.


Also, I met the daughter. Her name is actually Caroline.


Edit: I also met oldest son Julien (Julienne? I don't know.) and his girlfriend Stephanie. They came for a visit, I guess it was a complete surprise. They stayed for dinner, which made me feel even worse for missing dinner after I told them I'd have dinner with them...
