So the month of December in Clermont has been a lot of fun I've been hanging out with a lot of friends and just enjoying life. This past Thursday the school hosted a big night out which started with a school show with awards and skits from the students and the teachers and followed with a dinner at big hall. Following the dinner we all hopped into buses to go to a club where we partied the night off until about 6 am. It was a blast and it was one of the first times that I partied with all of my friends both American and international! It really was a lot of fun.
After sleeping most of the day on Friday I got up in time to go to the Clermont-Ferrand -- Toulouse Rugby Match which was in Clermont Friday night. It is one of the biggest matches in France and it was a really cool game to watch, not to mention the stadium is pretty nice too! Clermont won 21-17 and really should have blown out Toulouse.
Saturday morning the 22nd, I got up fairly early to start my 3 week vacation! We hopped on a train to paris the at 830 in the morning and then headed to the apartment that I had rented. The apartment is really really nice and I will post pictures of everything upon my return from paris.
Saturday in Paris we were pretty tired so we just went down and walked the Champs-Elysee and saw the Arc de Triomphe. Sunday we did a little bit more and saw St. Eustache, Centre Pompidou, Les Halles, Opera and Galleries Lafayette!
Today, Christmas Eve we went and saw Notre Dame, Hotel Dieu, Palais de Justice, Pantheon, and La Sorbonne - the famous Parisian University.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and I will keep you as updated as possible on my travels as I can!
Merry Christmas to all!!
Love,
Jon
