On Thursday I happened to be lunching at the Terrace when I ran into my high school French teachers. It was so great to see them and we got to catch up on stories from high school. They were there with their seniors on the annual trip to Madison. The trip includes a visit to Van Hise to see where language classes are held at the UW, a tour of the Chazen museum to look at French art, and lunch at the French House on campus. The "Maison Francaise" is a house like a sorority or fraternity house. People can live there and speak French with each other and have a good time!
We got talking about our trip to France and reminiscing about all the fun stories we had. They still don't believe Tassia and I that we had a male visitor in our room. To this day, Tassia and I stick by our story though. We knew there had to be someone there when we found shaving cream in the sink, our bathroom supplies were used, and a man's shirt was hanging on the door. Also we like to remember Danny's face when he got stuck on the metro. We thought he was long gone until we found out Tassia and Bridget was with him. Oh yeah Brad got stuck there too but Tassia and Bridget were the ones who would be able to get the boys back :) (sorry Brad!). Bill took us on so many strolls. Mme and Mme talked about how they were going to take the same trip that we did; Paris to Biarritz to Provence to Nice. They talked about how they were requesting a lot of the same hotels we stayed in.
Talking with them was so much fun. I am super jealous of all the people going on the trip this year. I want to go really bad and know that some day in the future I will get my chance to go back. After all I am a French Badger ;)
A tout a l'heure!
