Hello everyone,
It's me and I'm finally back from my wonderful vacation that to me, was a combination of Cuba and the March when we went to the South of France. It was hot. It was fun. It was not long enough. Vacation's never are. Even when they're say... 3 months. Oh well, I shall begin to tell you of all our different adventures.
We started the whole thing on Wednesday, February 28th at 4:30 in the morning when I woke up and started the 10 hour drive to Marseille. It wasn't technically me driving but still. We got to Marseille and got onto our boat for the night, it was around 6 pm (I think) when we started 'sailing' and we arrived the next day at 8:30 (again, I think). I was sick. Oh boy was I sick. You know how I get really pale when I'm about to faint or I'm really sick? Yeah, well I was. Pale I mean. Thank god for Gravol.
We then drove the 3 or 4 kilometers to our house, kind of like what Chris and Conrad had in Le Lavendou. It was gorgeous. I have tons of pictures and I have 4 or 5 videos. I'll put them on youtube and post the address here, they're funny but in French.
Every day we did something different. Well, not really every day, we'd do something, have a day off, then do something else the day after. One day we went on a hike to see some big hole. Juliette and I started to walk faster and soon got a very big lead. We walked, following the trail and we walked and we walked etc. At 1:30 (we started around 9ish) we decided that since we didn't see the others, we'd call them and tell them that we were going to eat our sandwiches. We called and were told that we had taken a wrong turn somewhere and were very far away from the other. Juliette hung up and we started our equally long walk back. We met up and all was well again but still. We had been in the middle of no where. Fun eh? It was actually. :P
Charles and I had an ongoing war throughout the whole trip. He's like the brother I never had, no wait, he IS the brother I never had. Sometimes he would win and sometimes I would win. He dumped water on my head, I dumped water on his. It was fun.
On time we were on the terrace and Francoise and her mother were relaxing below and Olivier decided to pour water on their heads. We all had a laugh. I can't really say much else about the trip only that the pictures and videos will be up soon!
Love Emma

Oh man, I am majorly jealous! That trip sounded awesome, especially if you don't count the being sick and getting lost parts. Plus, I'm glad to hear from you again -- we forgot exactly how long your trip was!
Must return to my work now. Not "work" work -- it's Sunday -- but your mother got her Palm PDA from her practice, and guess who gets the job of configuring it? Man I wish you were here to help me! Ah well, keep having fun, and keep blogging it!
Love, StrongDad

Emma,
It all sounded great, but ...a brother?! I don't know - they are very annoying. Very annoying! I think we need to talk :) I am glad it is so fun for you.

Hey Emma, it's me(sara)
I'm glad to hear you had so much fun. It sounded like a great time, and you're right vacations never are long even if they are say....three months. Oh well, what can you do. Anyway I'm glad you liked my news flash. Shoking isn't it, I nearly passed out in the hallway durring SLI's(Student Led Interviews)
Next term is going to be pretty bussy, and it seems like Ms. Lardino isn't going to be changing the classes around next term. YAY
So.....ya I think that is all I have to say at the moment. Corsica sounded like a BLAST!I'm gald you had fun. It is getting warm here now, it was 13 degrees outside.
Well that's it for now. Once again I'm glad you had fun, sorry you got sick though. Tata for now, miss you lots. Sara
P.S. You should if you get the chance, see the movie Happy Feet, it's hillarious, or at least I think so
HEY
HEY
