Au revoir Nemours!

I went for my last run in Nemours this morning...sigh. BUT I found the view of the town that I discovered whilst lost the other day...check out the photo! How amazing is Nemours???
This lunch was the last lunch at the Canteen and no one told Phillip...he was not impressed when we said we were leaving. But as a parting gift he gave us liqueur from Nemours, it's made out of poppies, it's the local speciality...we'll all have to have some when I get home!

Cheers from Nemours...Paris for 2 days and then...HOME

Celebrate good times, COME ON

And so it is finished. Courtney and Danielle left this morning at 5 AM for Paris and Catherine and I will leave Nemours on Friday. It is all wrapping up. I cannot believe that I made it. In the beginning I was terrified. I had no idea that I would be able to teach for the entire semester in a different language and culture. I feel like we should slow clap that out!

We celebrated last night by doing ariplanes...my hips are officially bruised.

I AM DONE UNIVERSITY

Hells ya! Just handed in my final project...and I am done and done. Can't believe. A few more classes to teach and then BOOM, DONE-ZO! That's a good feeling. Next thing I'll have to do is walk across the stage, I cannot wait! I am bubbling over with excitement.

41 minutes...no longer lost

I must lament about my run yesterday. I have been running almost exclusively in the forest now, following the yellow arrows and loving life. Yesterday was my first run back from Nice and off to the forest I went. SOMEBODY TOOK DOWN THE YELLOW ARROWS. I was soooooooo lost. I ran past the same sign 3 times in thirty minutes, I was literally running in giant circles. I finally figured out that the arrows were temporary and they were replaced with small painted yellow lines on trees and rocks...I figured that out 41 minutes into a run...BLAST.

Twas love at first sight

*New photos of Nice, scroll down past the top one to see new ones!
* I accidentally added the photos as comments so I couldn't write anything without deleting the photos...and it takes like a million years to upload


Nice nice nice nice nice...Can't get over it. If Rome and Nice had a love child it would be Paradise.

Yesterday Danielle, Kevin and I took to the beach with a backpack full of snacks and beers. Seriously. I had a pic-nic on the beach, incredible. Afterwards we walked to Castle Hill and checked out the ruins along with the ancient waterfall. It's crazy to see a waterfall and then turn around and see a panoramic view of the Med...I love my life.

Super windy from the top of Castle Hill

I went to mass this morning and someone has to tell the Catholic church to lighten up...I'm pretty sure Easter Sunday is a day to celebrate!
