Having a productive Sunday was a lot harder than Esther and I anticipated. Our seemingly simple plan was laundry, egg and cheese crepe for lunch that I had been craving, grocery shopping to avoid eating out this week, and homework. Instead of doing all that I made a list of everything I love about America:
1) FREE laundry (at home and at school), Wake Forest really is an amazing place.
At the "laverie" down the street it is 4.5 euros to wash one load of laundry and 1 euro per 8 minutes of drying - I don't know how much longer we will be able to afford separating lights and darks!
2) Stores that are open on Sunday.
It is sad enough in Winston when the Chick Fil-A's are closed on Sunday, but in France it isn't even possible to get groceries or crepes on Sunday!
3) Doing homework in English.
I don't think reading for classes at Wake will ever seem as hard, getting through the agricultural policies of the EU is quite the afternoon project when it's all in French
4) Shower heads that are attached to the wall.
I didn't know washing my hair could be such an arm workout...
That's all for today, still loving Paris!!
