Today the Americans enjoyed our first day of the long weekend with our host families. My host family and I are currently staying near a resort/campground-type place called “Le Parc de Fierbois.” There is so much to do, and we were outside all day. We are staying in my exchange partner’s grandmothers house with her cousin who is our age. First, we slept in a bit after a tiring first week, had some cereal for breakfast, and found her brothers and other cousins fishing at the lake.
Then we kept walking along the lake until we came across an inflatable playground, where we swam and sunbathed. Afterwards, we swam some more in the pool and headed back to the house for lunch- sausages, a rice/cucumber/corn salad, chocolate cake, and baguette with camembert! Then, we headed to archery, where I got a bullseye on my first shot. If you zoom in you can see it! After I was promised a free coca cola by the archery supervisor, we headed back to the lake with all the kids and swam again, played tag, and got sunburnt. We also got some ice cream! Then we rented these go karts and had a race around the resort.
