And so it begins...

I have officially been in France for 3 days now. What is the number one thing that I have learned you may ask?

COBBLESTONE STREETS SUCK AND MY FEET ARE KILLING ME!!!

I don't think I have ever walked so much in my life!! Owwww! Haha. Time to invest in good walking shoes.

But anyways...

I am going to try to keep this blog for friends and family to be updated on my little adventures here in France. I will try my hardest to write as much as I can but I need some wiggle room in order for me to go out and have these adventures.

So a quick rundown of what has happened:
-Long plane rides are not fun.
-The train station was freezing
-I'm in France!! Ahhhhhh!
-I think I am going to really like living here with my host family.
-Angers is soooooo pretty. It's like everywhere you turn you see buildings made of different materials. There is just this atmosphere that brings everything to life!
-The sales are going on right now...this may be bad for my wallet and bank account...
-Angers turns into something new when it is dark out ;)
-Julie took me and Emily to the Chateau and Cathedral here. The views of Angers were très magnifique! Those who constructed architecture in the 12th and 13th century really put a lot of time and effort into making a structure that is absolutely beautiful!

So yeah. This next week will be loads of fun. So many things I want to see. People I would love to meet. Places I wish to go to. I cannot wait!
