The students in two of the classes had chapter tests on Monday. Then we had a language lunch. My group went to Les 2 Suds in the Espace Van Gogh, on the site of the old hospital where Vincent Van Gogh was brought after the ear-cutting incident. We had delicious quiches.

Most of us had something chocolate for dessert, but Aileen had this beautiful tarte tatin with pears.

In the afternoon, a group of us went and had Moroccan-style mint tea.

Then, we went to a movie! It was “La Tête haute,” which opened at the Festival de Cannes this year.

The movie was distressing, so here’s a video of kittens.

In the near future, I will post pictures students sent me of their weekend trip to Marseille! As for me, over the weekend I saw this…

(Les Alyscamps, an early Christian and also medieval necropolis)

…and this.

Stay tuned for student photos of Marseille!
