School events

Even though mum's french is poor we have some discussion and then we go to join the school events in the evening....this time it was quiz night and I had fun sitting with my friends...surrounded by girls my parents noted....and they sat and met some new parents....in fact it became the foreign table but came 3rd in the competition with not one national Belgium on the team - the quiz was varied on topics of music (yep including old french and Belgium groups), famous faces, maths, history, riddles...and we ate Thai food which was enjoyed more by the parents that the kids, certainly not me except the rice and stew that came at 9.30pm :-)

We also went to see ~The Brick~ exhibition...included The Scream, T-Rex (made of +80,000 pieces) 

Champagne, anyone?

We visited our relatives Papá's Tio, Tia with Vitor and Rafael in Reims. We picked mamá from the Thalys train just back from the US and drove straight for a lovely dinner. The next  day we went to visit Mercier champagne caves before driving home and stopping to visit the largest fort in Europe in Sedan.We arrived on the day of a bicycle/run competition which was fun to be surrounded by. Beautiful weekend.
