The Kids in France

I thought it would be best to take today to show a video interview we did with the kids this evening. Today was "officially" our day off, which meant that we did laundry and toured the Puy de Dôme (a dormant volcano) before turning in an hour earlier than normal.


Tomorrow is more outreach, and another International Night service, that Michelle will talk about more in tomorrow's post.


In the meantime, I hope that you enjoy this:

Paris Day 2

Outside of the Louvre
Today we went to Versailles, had lunch by the water, took a row boat, saw the Mona Lisa and more at the Louvre, and had chocolate crepes!


In front of Versailles
Row, row, row your boat...
Angry Tim!
The kids in front of one of the many beautiful gardens at Versailles.
Lovers in the garden... hehe.
The Wallace Boys
Snack time at Versailles
At the Hall of Mirrors
Dinner in the Latin Quarter
The Louvre
The kids hanging out with Venus de Milo.
The Girls!
No Paris excursion is complete without crepes filled with Nutella!
All in all, we are totally exhausted, but loving the city. We are all ready for a more relaxed day tomorrow. We'll sleep a little later, eat breakfast, then board the train to Clermont-Ferrand. We should arrive that afternoon, where the missionary we're working with will take us to our host home and introduce us to the team.
Keep praying that we will maintain good attitudes and perspectives as we adjust to life in France. We're really excited to meet the team and begin the outreach!
