Eating, swimming, walking, riding

Today we started our adventure with what I think is a weekly market, In the town centre. They had everything from soap to hats to frog legs and cheesecake (not the traditional new York cheese cake. It was rounded and more like a fluffy cake with a cheese taste as well as a blackened top. The vendor said that the blackened top made it the best cheese cake in the world but we still didn't eat the burnt part.) We also had interesting mini cakes called le royal. Finally, we had some crepes with interesting jam. Myrtle, which is probably the closest thing this country has to blueberry and mure which was something like blackberry. Interesting little note: from the cheesecake vendor we also bought a ginormous butter cookie! There, we also met a nice American man who commented on how big the market was and how tall Emma was for her grade. After the market, we went on a walk through an environmental area called Les Prairies du Roy and it took us through two towns. After that, we went on a horse and carriage tour through the areas we had previously walked through. The driver didn't speak much English but I got the jist of it. All in all the ride was very enjoyable. Après sa, we went swimming for a bit and then lounged around. Next, we went out for dinner and we just came back from a walk around. That was our very full day. I hope this makes you wish you were here with us! I'll post tomorrow when we will have gone to a castle~Kate
