Yesterday, at around 2:30, we decided we would take a trip to Vaison La Romain. Chelsea decided not come as she had just woken up a half hour earlier (That would be an hour before school would END if we had school). The drive only took 10 or 15 minutes (it was just down the road). We first stopped at a store called Bizareland (European Giant Tiger) we looked around a bit and found something that Giant Tiger doesn’t have. If you have been to the Rideau center (Ottawa) you will have seen a store called Happy Days (the IT store) at the back of this store it is just all joke sex stuff. This store had the same thing in its store too (I know, it’s all sex in France). We parked in there down town area and walked around a bit. We got some croissants and baguettes (When in Rome) and we were on our way back home again. Last night I planned to listen to the Sens game online. I got all set up in bed with my laptop and headphones and I heard them announce the starting line-up then the starting goalies, then nothing. I had fallen asleep without even hearing the puck drop.
In the morning I was able to go online to see the scores. Ottawa won. We started planning another trip today. Planning always starts with estimating what time we are going to leave then waking Chelsea up an hour and a half before. We decided to go to a town called Nyon. We left at 1:00 pm and were planning on eating lunch there. We got there in only 20 minutes (about as far from the airport to Disney...hahaha) we looked for a couple places to eat and decided on a take-out sandwich place. My dad got a weird egg plant sandwich (he even thought it was weird), my sister caught some chocolate croissants, my mom got a little quiche and I got a sandwich with my name all over it. It was called a poulet frites. It was half a huge baguette with delicious chicken, lettuce and topped with French Fries (surprisingly that’s not what they call them here). It was so good. I am thinking of selling the idea to Subway. We decided to keep going down the road and it took us thru these huge mountains (or so I thought) It turns out they are just the foot hills of the Alps. They were pretty amazing and I got some great pictures. We turned around and went back down the winding road. We stopped at the grocery store and I was standing in the candy aisle looking at the price and it was amazing. Chocolate bars are so cheap, a pack of twenty Twix bars is only 5 Euros (7,50 $) and 4 big white chocolate bars was only 1,50 Euros (2,75 $). We got back home and I decide to go for a run (Gym class). It was pretty fun and I got see some of St. Roman De Malegare that I haven’t seen. When I got home I was pooped and I decided to take a nap. I sit here at 11:00 o’clock writing this and listening to the Team 1200 on the radio and now I think I will go to bed, Good night.
