Singing in the rain...and practicing our chinese

Today could not have gotten any better. Mike and I had to do tons of work, but since we were working together and we turned today into Christmas in October the work flew by. In the afternoon the students took off for a camp out in the middle of nowhere so we have the camp to ourselves again! Which of course means an equipier adventure, so this evening the four of us--Doris, Kristin, Mike and I headed to Bringoud. We thought we would get crepes, but got distracted by the chinese restraunt and ended up eating there instead. It was tres drole to be eating chinese food, french chinese food mind ya, in France with american 80's pop disco playing in the background. I tried my first bit of duck at the persuasion of Mike and Kristin who said it was just like chicken...they lied. It's not. Afterwards, we decided to do dessert at the creperie. So to get there we had to walk a little bit and we did a wonderful rendition of singing in the rain, complete with our own improvised dance moves! For dessert we split two amazing chocolate, ice cream, and hot chocolate syrup crepes. They were the best crepes I have ever had and then we just sat for an hour or so and talked and talked. It was so nice to get away from camp and hang out as a littler group. When we got home Mike of course being the guy had to work off all the food we ate and started a game of tag in the parking lot which ended with us all completly feeling terrible due to stuffing ourselves silly. Basically another random equipier night over here in France. Tons of fun and some strange craziness on the side.

P.S.--There was a dog under the table in the restraunt we ate at!!!! It's legal here!

And that's all folks...off for some family guy with the kids :)
