My winter break went very well, even though I had many problems traveling due to a general transportation strike in France. (Read the entire article...it's very interesting, especially the people's comments at the bottom.) I once thought I'd be stranded in Venice, and another time I thought that I'd be homeless in Paris for a night while suffering from a nasty bug (I think it was a combination of things I ate and drank in Venice). Neither of those things happened of course, although I did lose a little bit of money (although I have to say not nearly as much as some other students; many people were affected by the strike).
It's going to take me a while to make and caption my photo albums and then write an entry about my adventures, but in the mean time, check out the new links I put up! They're right under the the picture of the flag, always right above the most recent entry.
And here's proof that I actually DID travel!!!
Tchao!
