Oh why me! I thought we were supposed to eat breakfast at 7h00 not get up at 7h. So, I woke up at 6h30, got up 6h32 after unsuccessfully trying to get more sleep. Took a fast shower, ate breakfast at 7h and no one except for one of the professors was down stairs. We have two hotels and it's a bit of a walk between them. I talked to someone until 8h30 or thereabouts and now we're heading to Chenonceau, another castle or is it Tours? I need the schedule.
Anyway, it rained on us, heavily yesterday during our walk, I didn't have my raincoat although I wished I did because my umbrella wasn't very helpful and at the end of the walk, a man in short neon pink shorts and some sort of strap offered a black whip to us and told us to whip him to save his life. So one of the professors took the black whip and whipped him harder. THen a man in black pants and black leather jacket snatched the whip from our guide/professor and said, 'you're doing it wrong" and whipped the man harder. IT was so funny, I almost forgot it was raining and I was getting soaked. He thanked us and said we saved his life and then he went off with some other guy in a pink neon shirt.
And last night, I saw a very old episode of the Japonais anime, One Piece. It made me happy to see it even though it was in French and it was part of a story arch I didn't like so much. Usually on the weekends, I read the online manga but not here. Sadness.
Oh yeah, it also had thunder and lightning, one of my friends didn't like that and I tried to comfort her but who knows if she was comforted. I love the breakfast at the hotel: I had tea, three cups of water, two cups of orange juice, cheese! (imagine a choir of angels singing) and ham.
"What? They don't give you vegetables or solid fruit?" says the parent in horror!
