Normandy Cont'd. . .
Alright . . . now before I go into the post-specific stuff, I wanna reiterate some points I wanna make about the comments specifically:
-I'm scared because I'm ON my own and expressed it by shouting "shit!" afterwards. I am not scare OF my own shit.
-The jail hotel was in Lucerne, Switzerland. That is somewhat different from Paris, France . . .
Reading is an important skill, guys. Don't be afraid to practice it. It makes everyone feel happier and less-embarrassed about it afterwards. Anyways, what were you asking now?
- Re: Baguettes: I know I can get baguettes where I live. However, we're talking about REAL French baguettes fresh from the boulangerie in the morning. It's good stuff, yo.
- Re: my bro's head: Yeah, he was fine. He was laughing more than anyone else after the impact . . . it's just funny, y'know?
This post'll finish up my time in Dieppe, followed by my entrance into Caen . . . and yes, now we're down to two days per post since I wrote more per day during this week . . . not including the "continued" bit from last day which spilled over onto the next page at the time . . .
Dieppe (May 29 cont'd.):
- 9pm and it's still REALLY sunny out!
- . . . gonna feel guilty about all my early nights . . . hate being sick, too . . .
- I REALLY need to look up train schedules re: Dieppe -> Rouen -> Caen!
Dieppe (May 30):
- Late morning up. Nice.
- Saw the castle; saw the beaches; saw the cliffs.
- "Japonais?" "Chinois."
- High schoolers said hello and giggled . . . I think I got ripped on . . .
- 19 Aug. 1942 museum was really nice. Shame no pictures allowed . . .
- I THINK I have my train schedule figured out . . .
- And then I got evicted from my 59€/night room @ Hôtel Les Arcades . . .
- . . . and was put in a 39€/night room @ Hôtel Aguado (***)!!!
- . . . And my credit card works!!!!! YES!!! I AM INVINCIBLE!!!
- (There's a lot of dog poop in Dieppe . . .)
- 1 liter of mussels for dinner for 10€ . . . booyah. AND waiter spoke Anglais!
Dieppe -> Caen (May 31):
- Baguettes for breakfast end tomorrow!
- Got into Caen no fuss. Booyah.
- Guy @ Tourism Office was awesome. Very useful.
- Hotel in Caen 'til Tuesday morning (5 nights) . . . switch to 4 nights . . . (Done!)
- Alright, time to hammer out an itinerary . . .
- Talked to Ed, talked to Amy . . . learned Shanny's havin' a horrible month . . .
