April 14 Wednesday

Sorry this is a bit late! Last night there was an exciting soccer (football as they say here) game so we were all up very late. For most people, morning with families meant sleep all morning. After waking up around noon, we headed out for a walking trou of Rouen with an English speaking guide. We saw the famous Notre Dame of Rouen and several other churches along with the spot Joan of Arc was burned at the stake and a modern church in her honor. After the tour, we went to various cafés and shops downtown. At night, there was the soccer game which was Rouen vs. Paris. Unfortunatley, Paris won but the game was very exciting!

Bonjour tout la monde!
Yesturday we began our trip to Rouen! Nous sommes fatigués!
We started our trip by going to Logan airport and took a 7 hour flight to Paris. It was very long, but thankfully, many, including myself, watched movies and tv shows and slept. When we landed it was getting lighter out, but it was foggy. We then got our bags and got on the bus. Many snoozed as we drove by many fields and little towns. Many were excited to see sheep and other animals. We then arrived at the meeting place and went off with our host families.
