Ce week-end, je suis allée au Lille! It's way up north and super close to Belgium :)

The food there was very different from the food in Paris, but it's sooooooo good. Any weight that I may have lost was definitly gained back in my weekend there. Too good!


There is a lot of Flemmish influence there, and half of the signs were in Flemmish... I was a little worried at first when I couldn't read anything! The city reminds me a lot of the French version of Boston, and it was truly lovely.


I got to go to the ocean on Saturday, and the weather was absolutely perfect! The dunes there made me think of Lake Michigan (it was nice to have a little reminder of home).


That's all for now, hopefully more soon!

Maggie - Absolutely lovely! You didn't say who was with you but I suspect your host father, JF and perhaps your host from the Lille family. I didn't realize that they spoke Flemish in France - interesting! Your smile is beautiful . . . Love you!!!! Mom
