la belle vie

the last 3 weeks have been busy!! i've had two visitors: megan & amy (both friends from denison), celebrated st. patricks day french-style, went on several day trips, and finally finalized break plans! here's a run down:

-megan visited-
we were together for st. patty's day (looooved all the green!), hit up the market a few times, went out for the casual glass of vino, went to pont du gard, megan cooked an amazing french dinner, picnics in the jardin...so incredible being able to show her my life in france & loved having her here :)

-Pont du Gard-
day tripped here with asia & megan & sarah one wednesday, we had beautiful weather, a delicious picnic, and i'm planning on returning this wednesday with allison! (as per usual, all these pictures are from asia...since i don't have a camera)

for more info about the history etc of the pont du gard - here's a link to wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pont_du_Gard

-amy visited-
she got to see a whole different side of nĂ®mes that i had no idea existed - winter feria!!! the weekend that megan left & amy arrived was insane...parties in the streets, bands in costume, herding a bull down the main rue are only some of the things we saw. the real feria is in june, and every time i say i'm leaving at the end of april a french person can't believe i'd even think about leaving before the feria. ahhh well...will just have to come back for it one day!

ok, that's all for now! on my way out the door to pick up allison :D
