Cave Spelunking!

Today I chose to go on an optional field trip with the history and english class to a French fortress during the wold wars. It was pretty cool. We spent the time in underground tunnels learning about history from a french woman with a german accent trying to speak english on a huge tour, so she was kind of yelling. She did a wonderful job, but I couldn't really understand her... haha I took sooo many pictures for dad because I'm sure he wishes he could have been there haha.

Kenny told us that the field trip was to go cave spelunking, however thats not really what it was. haha Oh well! Diana and Eugene also went, we had a really great time! Although we got quite lost on the way there which was pretty funny. On the way back there was huge tour bus coming down a very tiny road at us, which was quite the predicament. No body was injured in the process of that mess though. On the way back History Man, aka Professor Green took us past "what is rumored to be one of the most beautiful towns in all of France". It was quite beautiful, and I took some pictures of that as well.

I just got back from the gym/spa. I did pilates taught by a French speaking woman, that loved the three of us, and spoke to us quite a bit although we never actually said a word because we can't speak french...haha Then sprints and lifted. Then the thermal pool, aka huge hot tub :D It was a good day..

Tomorrow we are going to Thionville, France for an all day field trip with Jaan...YEY! Then we have another one on Thursday, its a crazy week, but I'm pumped! :D
