After a long plane ride, we finally landed in Paris! After
we landed, we could ONLY speak French from now on! It is very difficult to
speak only in French… en français s’il vous plait. After we went through
customs (a surprisingly quick process), we got an amazing lunch of baguettes
with ham or chicken and waited for our train to take us to Lille! Once on the train, the first thing we noticed
was how open and green the country side was, so different from LA! --Anna
Upon our arrival to Lille, Tim Duriez, our Poly exchange student, was waiting for us at the end of the platform. He enthusiastically offered to show the group La Grande Place de Lille to the Poly group. Upon our return, Jack and Charlie played the piano for the whole Lille-Flandre train station. When our final train for Calais arrived, everyone pretty much collapsed!! Now we are at our homes and getting a good night's rest before a day in Dover, England tomorrow.
