Vacances d'Avril - Paris


















With spring break coming to an end, I figured I would make a blog post to tell you alll what I've been doing with my 2 weeks vacation from school. The first week I didn't do much, but the 2nd week was great! I went to La Ciotat with a friend, and was shown a beautiful set of 3 red rock beaches. It's been warming up here in the south of France, so I've been able to get some sun and sand, which has been wonderful. It was my first swim of the season. The day after, I went to Paris with the family I used to au pair for - the Jaspards, and their current Canadian au pair Morgan. I love this city, and can not wait to attend school there. During the day, we went around to various museums and parks with the boys, then in the evenings we would go out on our own. I saw a concert at this cool little venue called La Fleche d'Or, a band called Frightened Rabit was playing, and although it was not exactly my genre of music, I really enjoyed myself. The ambiance of a concert is enough for me to enjoy myself. Over by the concert there was a wall with a ton of tastefully done graffiti. One night, Morgan and I visited the Musée de l'érotisme, which is located next to La Moulin Rouge in the red light district of Paris. It was actually very interesting.
If it stays nice out, I'll be going to La Ciotat again on Sunday to enjoy the beach, so fingers crossed for that!
I also have an exposée to do for my french language course, and I think I may do it on Marquis de Sade, however, I have not decided for sure yet... It could be a very interesting topic!
All in all, it was a very productive break.
On a side note - CRAZY about the volcano in Iceland... 2012...
