Apartment dinner: red beans, no cornbread though...
Windy Sunday morning pancake day
REAL pancakes. Not crepes.
Strike.
Daffodils. They seem to be more popular here than the states. A bouquet is 14 euros... almost $19. For daffodils?!
My room update. Realized no pictures have been posted since shortly after I had moved in. Looks a bit more homey now I think. Mostly in part to all of the wonderful cards and things y'all have sent me.
Special thanks to Kadi for the V-day banner.
Irish pub.
First Guiness... on St. Paddy's no less.
EVERY French town (perhaps all towns in the world?) has an Irish pub. This is Madigan's on St. Patrick's Day. Haha, the French...
St. Patrick's party. Green food and green beer (bottles).
CAVE! EXCITED!
Gouffre de Poudrey.
They had a light show to make up for their lack of cave-ness.
They also had a mascot.
After visiting a cave (gouffre) we had waffles (gaufres).
Carnaval weekend.
Little baby bee...
The man in the poster does not seem to approve of the town's shenanigans.
We opted out of taking a picture with these guys...
but I totally would've gotten one with him!
Carnaval food! Churros and cotton candy (that literally translates into "Daddy's beard"). What I'm holding is the smallest size.
The yellow flowering plant is EVERYWHERE and stands out so much it's as if someone photoshopped it in all over Besancon.
Spring = trenchcoats!
One of the books the school board had given us to help us teach. TRANSFER: most ridiculous acronym ever.
I finally got to use my cupcake skills in France... thanks to mom and KDKC!
That's fricking adorable, right?
Blossoming trees on Easter Sunday.
Rotisserie chickens at an Easter market.
Easter Mass. (Yes, Daddy, I went to mass! No blue seersucker suits though...)
Very impressive Easter dinner mostly courtesy of Mr. Ben David Edward Coates.
Little Easter nests Catherine made for us!
Post-dinner.
The Easter bunny planning my trip to Northern Ireland!
