August...Part 1


It has been a bit since I have blogged. I figured that since I was living in France, I would take the typical French vacation during the month of August… from my blog. That being said, I will give some accounts of the past month that I have not blogged about.

Today, I will focus on the first week of August here in Toulouse.


We spent the first Saturday in August with some people we met at school.  It was a great evening of drinking some English beers and watching football at an English pub. A bonus to learning French at this school is meeting a lot of new and interesting people. The downfall is spending several weeks or months with them and then they leave. We have had our fair share of this in August.

The first Sunday of every month, Toulouse has free entrance to most of its museums in the city. We usually always partake in at least one museum on this day of each month and this time we tried two. First, we decided to visit the George Labit Museum. This museum was a bit of a walk for us on the Canal du Midi. This canal is a beautiful addition to Toulouse and will definitely be another blog posting by either Derek or myself.
