Day 6-7 France (12-14 Feburary 2010)

The five of started out the day by going to an excellent Vegetarian restaurant (I can’t emphasize enough how much better the food is in Europe then in the US). It was an all you can eat with so much amazing vegetarian food to choose from! So Good! Then Ani dropped Evan and me off at the bus stop and we took a short ride to Toulouse, which is a large city right near Blagnac. We then walked all around. We walked through an open air market, briefly saw the capital building, saw some beautiful statues and founts, went to a cool museum which had ancient marble statues, models of the original creating of Toulouse, and a dig of some old structures found underneath the museum. We also continued eating wonderful bread, had glorious nutella crepes from outdoor vendors, and ate at a pasta bar (Evan and I want to start up our own pasta bar). We went into many cool shops that reminded me of whole earth, walked next to the river, played in parks, explored, went into a bar, and just basked in each other company.

The next day we walked through Blagnac again and ate more bread. We then explored more of Toulouse for the rest of the and then I had to leave. It was extremely hard to leave after having such a lovely time being with van and his family and eating yummy foods. Evan, Ani, and Michael dropped me off at the airport, we rushed over, because we cut it pretty closely to the time I had to depart. Then after rushing my plane was delayed for two hours, figures. I miserably sat in the airport, just wanting my flight to be cancelled so I could spend more time with Evan. We finally took off and than the train I took to the airport wasn’t running any more because it was so late, and I figured out another way home after talking with the crabby ticket seller. After taking the train I found my bus stop, and then transferred to another bus, and then took a taxi, and then by 3 am I was in bed. I had such a wonderful time with Evan. It was simply magical meeting him in France. I have to wait three months till I see him again. It’s going to be difficult, but it will all be worth it when I’m in his arms again in May.
