So as mentioned in yesterday’s post, the French lesson got moved to this morning. Today we were doing some listening tests on numbers and siblings, and how to describe what we were wearing. Lyn is a great teacher so everyone learned really quickly.
Lyn stayed with us for lunch and then offered to take us to Aubeterre for the afternoon as it was Lynnes last day, so all the girls headed down there. Aubeterre is one of France’s prettiest villages, and even just looking at the pictures, you will see why. We went to the monolithic church which is a definite must-see as it is a church built into a cave (and it really cooled us down from the 40 degrees heat). Aubeterre has plenty of little shops to visit which sell really pretty things, and we spent a while looking around them all.
After Aubeterre, Lyn took us to an exhibition on in Chalais near the castle and the church. It sold a wide variety of handmade things, from sculptures, to cutlery and clothing. So thank you to Lyn for a great afternoon out!
We headed back to LG as Paul had booked us a resturant at St. Bernard’s for Lynne’s last supper in Brossac! We were joined by Jean-Michel for dinner and Niko for dessert, and we spent the evening teaching each other rhymes and discussing books and Dubai airport!
