Friday- IES visit to musee Dorbree which is literally a block from the IES center where I take classes. It was pretty cool, favorite part: pair of white porcaline dogs. And Jewlery.
faceted amber according to the description- much prettier in reality than in this picture.
We walked around and toured Mont St Michel. It was very pretty with a history back to the 11th century. Unfortunately about two rooms into our tour my camera died. So I will have to get pictures from others.

The walk up was lined with cute stores and cafes.
This was the location of a pretty garden and also the death of my camera. I will put up other pictures after I get them from someone.
By the time we got to St Malo it was pouring. It is a walled city on the beach. We walked all the way around the ramparts on top of the walls before going to the beach and climbing on the rocks. I now own a small collection of french seashells. I also displayed my knowledge of shore wildlife by explaining the difference between barnacles and limpits. The weather had gotten a little better by the time we went to the beach so it was really fun. I basically had to drag my friends there by saying it was my birthday and I wanted to walk on the beach. But they were thanking me after because it was such a good time.
My camera came back to life for one last picture, which turned out beautifuly and is now my desktop background on my computer.
