Tuesday
This morning after breakfast, my group had a go at rock climbing. I had done a little rock climbing when I was younger. I was really excited and couldn’t wait to have a go!
However, the activity was more difficult than I expected. My legs were numb from the cold weather and I couldn’t find the strength to pull my body up the wall. Somehow, I managed it. If I’m honest, I enjoyed the abseiling a lot more.
After lunch and a lesson in the classroom, we visited the French town of Fuggiurre (sp?). We were asked to interview a random French person in the town. I feel a bit stupid going up to someone in the street, but the individuals were very obliging.
Then another task was to go into a tourism office and find directions to a place. Then we had to find out about an event going on in the town.
I thought it would be clever to go into a French travel agent to enquire about a festival. I walked in, and asked “Qué est supermarché?” (“Where is the supermarket?”) Oops a daisy!!
The look on the woman’s face was unbelievable. She was lost of words. But she was willing to help me as much as she could. I was in hysterics, I couldn’t talk, LOL!! That certainly made my day.

You're brave. I couldn't rock climb! Enjoy your week.

The young have no fear. Climbing the stairs is high enough for me.
Take care
