Le week-end







Like I said in the previous blog, I took it easy this weekend. Going to the Musée d'art et d'Industrie for free with Heather on Saturday and to other various events that were going on in the city (singers while eating paninis, signing up for clubs, watching weird transportation movies that people judge afterwords). That night was the first time I felt lonely, since mu stupid cell phone wouldn't receive calls I went to watch the spectacle de son et lumière (fireworks and laserlight show to close the tram festival) by myself. So I spent my Saturday night crying to Chris instead of going out and having fun, but I thin I needed it, ya have to have some breakdown while you're abroad. Then Sunday I explored the city a bit more, going to the market and to the Parc d'Europe and then to the café with some new assistants. I will add photos of all of this soon but the computer is moving slowly. So à bientot!
Oh I didn't explain the museum, it was really interesting to see some history of Saint-Etienne and I love to see how things are made so the ribbon-making machines were my favorite. I also liked to see the old bicycles and it was amazing to think how much work goes into putting together a bicycle spoke or getting the silk from a silkworm and then taking that bundle and making ribbon. So it was an eye-opening experience for me, making me feel even more grateful for all that I have.
