I can't believe the week it has been and that it is already Tuesday of this week? It started out with my day off on Monday, like I said in the last post, I spent most of the morning putting Ikea furniture together and then had the Sister Missionaries over for a visit and dinner. Tuesday and Wednesday my boss went to London, so I flew solo with the kids, and then we had one day to get ready for France! That's right, France? I'm still in unbelief that I actually went there? Friday morning we woke up early to head to Dublin to fly to Carcassone, France. We eventually got to our final destination around 5pm, after a taxi ride with a gentlemen that didn't speak a word of English, very interesting! We stayed at a camp site on the coast of the Mediteranian Sea. We immediatly headed to the beach for a little fun and rest time after a day of travel. Then we had some amazing pizza for dinner and then begins the long evenings of me sitting in my bosses place, while she spent some time catching up with friends that we met up with there. No internet, tv, but it was actually really good thinking and reading time. Nice time to sit back and reflect on where we were at and this amazing experience I was able to be a part of! This camp site I have to tell you was incredible. It had its own downtown with a market, bakery, pizza place, resteraunts, bars, souvenier stores, and so much more! Indoor pool, outdoor pool, a number of kids parks, a caraousel, trampolines, go carts, etc. On the first full day we rented bikes and used them most of the time to ride around and see everything! We spent a lot of time at the beach, eating great food(Pastries are amazing), and just enjoying time in France! It really was surreal and amazing to be in a place I had only dreambt about going to! If you would like to see pictures from my trip, I posted them on Facebook! Such a fun and amazing trip! I WILL go back there someday, it is seriously such a perfect place for families to go to and forget about the world! Now I am back in Belfast, on my day off, may go see a movie tonight? I am really enjoying my time out here! It's feeling more like home and I am so grateful to be able to have this experience! Hope all is well back in America and until next week!
