Yes finally finally finally, a week later, I am taking time out from my 2,000 word Shakespeare paper to tell you all about my trip to La Rochelle. First of all, the basic outcome of this trip is that I am in love with France. If I spoke better French, that is where I would live.

appreciation
Thanks for taking the time to write about la Rochelle. We are going there in May and you've given me lots of tips. I wonder where all the yellow bikes are?

- Français -
Voilà un beau voyage que vous avez fait Mademoiselle! :) Your french is good; you are able to identify gender of words (la tour, le bateau)! C'est excellent! Je dois dire que vous m'avez fait bien rire en disant que tout ce qui se dit en français est intelligent (if you knew....haha!) Alors, en espérant que vous retournerez un jour en France (even though I'm from Québec) pour pratiquer un peu la langue de Molière! Et je dois avouer, en terminant, que je suis vraiment jalouse de l'expérience que vous vivez en ce moment à l'étranger! SEEMS SO EXITING! Mélanie

La Rochelle is a beautiful place and to use a bike as means of transport is a great way to get around.
