Day 1 Update: Aix-en-Provence


It's Saturday evening and this week I'm in Aix-en-Provence attempting to improve my French. Throughout the week I'm going to (hopefully) be posting each day so that you can know what I've been up to. I'm staying with Curt and Vero, who both speak French, and their 7 month baby; Nils. 

Today I got 3 hours of sleep (our plane from Florence was delayed 6 hours and I didn't get to bed to 3:15) and we had to be out of the house before 7. My train to France left from Rotterdam at 8:03. I was riding first class (that is the life) so I got breakfast. I was sitting in a four person compartment at the very front of the train. 


I was on the train for 6 hours, in which time I:
- did nothing
- uploaded Y13 photos to Facebook
- read my book - 'Fast Food Nation'
- edited some videos from Europapark

I got off the train at 2:00 in the train station in Aix-en-Provence and Curt picked me up and drove me to their house in the center of the town.

Nils! So cute!!
