Wednesdays are lovely. No classes at all. I went to bed last night at 9:30pm and slept for about 12 hours... I was evidently exhausted and it was wonderful. At noon today, we met Justin and Amanda at a little café called "Le Cid" on the Place de l'Horloge inside the walls for a quick lunch before our promenade around the city. Today and yesterday have been overcast and rainy (very rare for Provence) and so we've been bundled up and staying—more or less—indoors.
After lunch, we got some ice cream from the glacier on the corner of the Place de l'Horloge and the Rue de la République (We're huge fans) and then made our way over to the Musée Angladon, where we spent a few hours browsing around the collection and checking out the current exhibit on Odilon Redon. We wandered around a bit, and did some window shopping, and now Cait and I are home again doing some homework for class tomorrow before dinner.
Also, I received my tickets for my train trip to Montpellier to go see Marie-Hélène et Gérard in May. I can't wait to see them both again—especially now that I actually speak French, don't hate French bread, and am not a whiny 8-year-old. :-)
Oh, and I feel that I should mention that hanging laundry out to dry on a line is a little odd. Works fine, just a completely new thing to get accustomed to here. Oh France, how you are so similar and different to home.
