Look - If you had one shot - Or one opportunity - To seize everything you ever wanted - Would you capture it - Or just let it slip


Okay, I'll have to start choosing harder lyrics because these are just SO easy! A classic song with so many good memories... Ahh.... *thinking about all the memories*


Anyway, yesterday was Francoise's birthday! Joyeux Anniversaire Chouchou! And we went to Mt. Saint Michel. Unfortunatly, this isn't my picture because it was really foggy yesterday, but this is it, nice eh? As some of you may know, it's an island with high tide and... not an island with low tide. You can have a guide lead you in on foot (to guide you around the quicksand) but when the tide comes in, it comes faster than a galloping horse so watch out. I especially like the sign that said "If you parked in ______ area, please move your car by _____ o'clock because of high tide", fun fun. We drove there (2 hours) and then went for lunch in this crazy famous omelette place. They beat the eggs for like an hour then cook it in a wood stove, I took a video, it's really cool. After we ate, we walked up to the church and got a tour. Juliette and I weren't very interested so we set my camera on timer mode and took a bunch of pictures. :P After the tour, which took a while, we set off back down the hill and hopped into the car. We drove to a cookie factory and bought cookies and stuff (I bought something for Canada!), it was really cool because they have to stuff they don't use on display like the cookie "cutters". These big rolls with imprints for the cookies. After we left, we went to a crepe place and ate dinner. Two and a half hours later, we were home. We ate the lemon cake that Juliette, Emma and I had made the day before. It was good, then we all fell into bed. In 2 days it's my birthday! I'm excited, since last time I wrote, I have gotten a package from my mom and Sara, thanks you guys! I miss you all!
Love Emma
