Joyeux Noel!

Too much took place in my four days at Saumur to write a blog entry about it- you'd get very bored. I'll put little discriptions of each day here, then post pitures and discribe whats in them.

Day 1: Christmas Eve, left at 7:30am, arrived in Saumur at 3:30pm. Sat around, ate food, went to a bookstore, sat around more, got introduced to lots of people, went to an incredibly long and strange mass at 8pm, got home at 9:30, spent a half hour to 45 minutes deciding how we were going to handle opening all the gifts (xmas gifts for 25 people=nightmare), opened gifts, got a mini iPod!!!!!!!!!! cried a bit with joy, ate dinner (11pm), decided I hate foie gras, but pheasant is ok, 10 people leave at 2am, bed at 3amish

Day 2: Christmas Day, woke up at 11am, ate breakfast and realized that two showers for fifteen people is not a good thing, sat around, watched part of Les Choristes, ate a huge lunch (oysters, salmon, etc), walked in a nearby town for a couple hours, played with toy cars and pellet guns, went back, sat around, ate dinner, talked to my parents, played monopoly trader (extremely confusing game), talked to my parents and our friends again (but accidentally hung up on them, sorry), went to bed

Day 3: Woke up late again, got even more frustrated with the showers, sat around, played cards, ate another big lunch, walked in another nearby town for several hours, came back, sat around, ate dinner, watched Harry Potter on tv, went to sleep

Day 4: Woke up, ate, left at 8am, arrived in Annecy at 4pm.

and thats it!
