Woot I’m in France
Immediately forgive any typos as I'm using a French keyboard which is a bit different and therefore hard to adjust to. So the flight was fine, no hitches. Everyhing as a mater of fact has been fine. I can communicate fine and although sometimes I lack the voabulary or the pronunciation I'm getting alon fine and can actually comunicate with so,e ease to people outside of those I'm staying with.
Romain has a great house, three bros (it gets really crazy alot) and also hes got a seaside appt in Narbonne and all these awesome sea activities (a boat, windsurfing boards, waterskis, innertube, all of it!). I didn't do too well at any of that stuf but it was fun and I got the wounds to prove it. Its actually kind of hard switching back to english after all this time in french mode.
My constant companion has been my pocket dictionarry. Mostly I've visited churches and cathedrals theres so many of them. But recently cause we're in the clarmont region we've been seeing alot of old volcanoes and counryside all very beautiful like the volcano lake we visited today. I'll post all my pics when I get back, start a flckr account.
The cameras been taking great photos, only the memory card got wiped for some reason. I did drop it but it may have also been the fact that the card is cheap. So everythings going fine, I don't knoz who's around still to read this but bonjour de France!
Décollage en 1…2…3
I'm sitting here. Waiting to leave for France. I've packed up everything, maybe a little too much clothing? The bag's a bit heavy but better to have more than not enough. I'm fully versed in the use of my new camera. Check out some sample snaps, most are from work. Nice 6 mp quality.

Behold the power of the beard! (at cheescake factory). "Troubleshooter" Joachim on right and awesome peer Ron on left.
Great dinner at Cheescake with my colleagues. Good time. Said goodbye to everyone on Friday and had my exit interview. All went well. Can't wait for payday though. Watched Hustle & Flow c/o Netflix. Awesome movie. I need the soundtrack bad though. I'll try and bring stuff back for everyone, food probably if I'm allowed. It's gonna be a long flight. I'll get there (Toulouse) about 24 hrs from now, maybe later. See I'm going through Iceland and then to Paris. If my flight in Paris is delayed I'll be later. I hope I can communicate well enough to get through, we'll pray! Bye everyone. You can still e-mail me and I'll check this blog some but my mom's now using my phone so don't call it and leave dirty messages or anything. See ya!
PS: For theatre researche project I've got all my materials and I decided on doing a play by Sartre (you know, guy who wrote "No Exit" about hell). Awesome playwright.
