Europe Day 46: More Bus

Despite all of our driving yesterday, today we drove some more.

Again, I slept.  Again, I watched two episodes of Lost.  I listened to my ipod. At long last, we arrived.  We are in a city called Caen near Normandy.

After settling in, a group of us headed out for dinner.  The outskirts of town, were we are located, are rather modern, ugly, and "urban" looking.  In the middle of the city is a castle, and here things are much more charming.  A little city center area features absolutely adorable, old fashioned looking restaurants and cafes.  We chose to eat a creperie.  I had a dish similar to scalloped potatoes, salad, and a chocolate crepe.  I can't tell you what was so fantastic about this meal.  Yes, the food was good.  Yes, the company was good.  Both of which seem to be rather standard on this trip.  But for some reason I look back on tonight's dinner with a particularly fond feeling. Maybe I just really really like crepes.  I think I ought to learn to make those-it might make me happier person.

Now, I am finally caught up with all of the blogs.  We will have internet every night from here on out.  Hopefully, I will consistently write a blog before I sleep, and not have to do two or three a night several days late.  But now, I will sleep.  Our Professor's policy of not waking up early apparently does not apply very often, and I have to be out of bed in less than eight hours.
