26 avril 2009, Vichy to Montluçon

SUNDAY

Another rainy day in Vichy as we repacked up the car to drive back to Montluçon.

Before heading out of Vichy we stopped at Monoprix (the Monoprix is the only grocery store open on Sundays, but the Montluçon store closes at noon, so we had to buy supplies for dinner in Vichy). Dad waited in the car, while mom and I went inside to get the food.

Back in Montluçon we did another quick tour. Outside École Lamartine.

Leeks hanging from Monsieur Champeyrol's (my landlord) clothesline in his garden... not quite sure the reasoning behind this.

A delicious dinner with the company of dad, mom, Becky (roommate), and Victoria (another English assistant)
