Salut!! I hope that everyone is doing well back home and that you have all recovered from your delicious Thanksgiving meals! I will be honest, it felt strange going to classes instead of being home to watch the Macy’s Day Parade and I certainly missed the delicious smells and tastes of Thanksgiving. The IMLS office (the office that is my home-base here) threw a Thanksgiving party for us. We all brought food but it was FAR from traditional—the corn that I brought was placed next to Ellen’s pancakes, a platter of French cheese and wine, an egg and ham loaf, 2 quiches, 3 dessert tarts, brownies, and sandwiches. It was one of the strangest Thanksgiving meals that I have ever had but it was just nice to be with my friends and their host families!
Last weekend, Friday through Tuesday, I traveled to
The Thanksgiving Feast/Centerpiece
Four of us (Ellen was the Pilgrim and I the Native American)/The group minus Ellen

Me drinking traditional Mint Tea/The tanneries
The little monkey cleaning Leah/Me with my banana, afraid of touching the monkey

Another view from our terrace/Me at the palace door

These pictures are awesome and you sound like you truly enjoyed yourself and had a great time in a different place! :-D I really liked looking at all the pictures and being able to sort of pretend that I'm there with you while you are exploring!

Hello Katelyn,
I'm a student in Mrs. Zicari's french 1 class, and I was wondering what the IMLS office is. Is it the international office? If you could please post the answer on the blog I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
Hi,
I'm a student in Mrs. Zizari's French 1 class. I was wondering what the grading system is like in France. Is it similar to here?
