Weeks 20, 21 and 22.... I've been slack

Sorry I haven't written for so long! I have been going like CRAZY!

So since we last spoke I have been to the Czech Republic, two gorgeous places called Prague and Bohemia (yes where that gorgous expensive crystal comes from) We had a great time there and saw so much, from the never ending array of turn of the centuary buildings to the beautiful astronomical clock which depicts all the star signs along with the seven deadly sins. Every hour when this clock chimes there is a skeleton that nods its head saying "yes it is your time to die" and everyone there aparently has to shake their heads to say "no I want to live another hour". It is really cool to see.























When I got back it was time to get my other host brother Ludovic from the airport as he has been in the USA for his exchange year. We held a surprise party for him and he got the shock of his life when he got home and over 60 people came running out of the bushes in the back yard to greet him! (HINT HINT!!) hahah. It was a great day and I met a lot of people and more importantly, the host brother that I have only ever seen through skype. Also, I had the har task of going to say goodbye to one other exchange student whose year was finished. So off to Bruxelles airport for the tearful goodbye.

















When that was done I came home and changed host families. So now I am back with my Maman Christine, Papa Jean-Pierre, Cyprien, Emilien and Gregoire. Their older sister Sarah comes back from South Australia on Sunday so it is back upto the airport for the 3rd time this month!
Well I will write more next week.
Till then, take care and I will see you all soon.
