Day 53: Quiberon, France

Today was another day with lot's of teaching.  I always forget hard hard it is until I do it, and then I am stunned by how hard it is, for like a day, and then I remember that this is not new information to me.  Anyway, I was really cold two nights ago, so tonight I bundled up and used an extra blanket.  It was great.  We taught for two hours in the morning.  I did a stretch, some breathing exercises, reviewed forward marching basics and then we worked on backwards marching.  It was a good morning for me.  Lunch at Yohann's was a pork chop and some pasta with tomatoes.  It was a good lunch.

This is standing at the front door, looking into Yohann's flat.
In the afternoon/evening, I taught music for a few hours.  The corps members are really fantastic.  They are such hard workers, and are so receptive to new information, it is really great.  At the end of the day, I was going to go to town and the coast, but it was really cold and very windy, so Yvan's wife took me on a car ride up the cost of the peninsula.  Yohann and I will go into to town and the beach tomorrow during the day.  It is really, really beautiful.  The architecture is very nice, and the coast line is really amazing.  The town is very cute, but I think very different in the summer.  There are about 5,000 people living here, unless it is the summer, and then there are about 50,000.


Here is Yohann, cooking us omelets for dinner.  
After dinner, we just watched some news and then The Mentalist.  And he showed me some old Tin-Tin stuff.  The Tin-Tin movie is a big deal hear in France.  I hear a lot about it.  It is always in the news.

  1. Sounds like another good day! Do you remember that Jacques had an entire set of large format Tintin in books which he loaned us for a long time? Great illustrations! The film will not premiere in the US until Christmas.
