Trocadero Aquarium, Mont St. Michel, and Class!!

Last week I went to the Cine Aqua aquarium at the Trocadero. First off, the student ticket price was 15 euros which is about $18. I figured that although it was expensive I might as well give it a shot. To make a long story short, it was the WORST Aquarium that I have ever been to. Maybe I'm a bit biased b/c I work at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. There were no guides or people to help you , and their touch pool consisted of Coi and Sturgeon. They did have some really cool interactive games for kids. All in all it was a complete waste of 15 euros considering I was only there for an hour. On Sunday, our group took a 5 hour bus ride to Mont St. Michel. That's right 5 hours there, and 5 more back. Mont St. Michel is this really cool abbey on top of a rock jutting out in to the Atlantic Ocean in Normandy. We paid 5 euros to go inside the Abbey and it was really cool. We even were able to listen to part of mass. After that, we went to a Biscuiterie, aka a cookie factory. Classes are going well. I moved up a level in my language class, and it is much better. The last class would have bored me to tears for the whole semester. Now I have two classes Monday, two on Tuesday, and one Wednesday morning. After class on Wednesday's I babysit. Everything is going well here. It is really starting to feel like fall, as the temperature has dropped. Time for scarves and peacoats!! YAY!!!
