L'ecole (the school)

Over the past week we have been at Accent Francais, a French learning school in Montpellier. Our teacher's name was Marie and she would be best described as an extremely patient person. Apart from 4 students(who must remain anonymous). Our group was terrible. By day 2 we needed a talking to because majority of us were rude and disrespectful.

It seems that Ms Kellow and Mr Willsmore were glad that we were finished at school in Montpellier as Marie (our teacher) was very patient with us. It could be said that some of us got lots out of the school, while others, not so much.

We are now in the large city of Lyon.

Love Felix =)

Montpellier

Montpellier, the city of homestays and french schools. Our homestays varied, some spoke perfect English, some didnt speak any. Some families took their kids somewhere, some didn't. I think everyone had at least a little fun. The French school was weirdly similar to school. Thank god it was only half a day. The second half of the day was a tour, the best one was to sete. We got wet by waves oof the Medditeranean Sea. Yes, our beaches spit on France's beaches, but Hey, at least France tries.....

Montpellier

Day 9 - all still accounted for - and all still alive.  Students are enjoying their homestays so far but really thought they had left the walking, walking, walking bit behind until we went to Nimes yesterday.  Our tour guide (Jean-Paul) switched between French, English, Swiss and German so fast it made their heads spin.  He also walked even faster than Mr Willsmore.  A movie today that is in French (strangely enough) with French subtitles - that's it for Luke and I we have no hope.  Lots of shopping being done though
