Hello world! I have touched down in France. I had a very tearful goobye, and an even more tearful wait in the gate as I could no longer see faces that had become so apart of my everyday life. Papa had the privelege of getting me a rum and coke to calm the nerves and stop the tears...did not work in the least, Papa then walked me right to the plane, gave me another hug and VOILA I was on my journey.
The flight was smooth, watched some movies and spoke to a nice French couple who were sitting beside me. Panda slept nicely on my lap - he is enjoying the adventure so far. Off the plane and my job was to run through customs and baggage claim so that I could catch a train to Nantes to see the French fam. The train ride was interesting - French people are sooo not Canadian...probably had five men just watch me struggle with my huge bags trying to get them into the baggage holdings - o well all done.
Home, showered, ate, time for cousins!!! Met the girls at the bus stop, went to get a sim card for the cell phone, and now they are doing homework. I thought it would be nice to update everyone! Sorry for short sentences etc. this french keyboard is driving me insane; it takes some insane concentration to form even a word.
Miss you all! Once I have my comp set up with internet I will put up more pictures!! Here until Friday and then one more train ride until YWAM.
