La France, c'est bizarre!

As soon as I posted my last blog my host parents told me that my luggage was at the airport!  Dieu Merci!  I think I was correct in hoping that I got the bad event out of the way because it has been nothing short of fantastic ever since.  I have a loud, friendly, loving family just like my real family.  The city is beautiful. But although France has been great, there have been some things I've found a bit...odd.

There are fountains in the middle of the street you can drink from.  Actual fountains...not drinking fountains.  Today, I went to the bathroom in a little room in the middle of the square that cleans itself after each use...the floors, the toilet seat, everything!  It all takes a bit of getting used to but the process of adapting is not only nerve-wrecking. It is exciting!  France is different, but not in a bad way.
