I made it safely to Angers, France after a 9 hour plane ride from Dallas and a two and a half our train ride from Paris. I was hoping to see a bit of Paris as we landed but there was a great deal of cloud cover and to my surprise when we broke through the clouds, it was SNOWING! I thought I had left that behind in Alaska.
The train ride was very pretty and I was able to get a glimpse of the countryside and all the cute little farmhouses and sheep.
My host Mom seems very friendly, she greeted me with tea and a Galette which is a cake/sweet bread with a souvenir hidden inside and whoever gets it in their slice is either le roi (the king) if you are a boy or la Renne (the queen). The souvenir was in my slice so today Je suis La Renne!
Tomorrow I get a walking tour of the City! Au Revoir!
