My First Day In France

The airplane arrived earlier than it was supposed to, which was great because I wasn't able to fall asleep on the 8 hour flight. After the plane landed, I managed to get lost in the airport and because I was so tired I almost started to cry. After, I finally found my way to Baggage (I had to take a train there) where I was able to find Mr. Polvèche - he is the Rotary's district president. I ended up helping him find two other Rotary exchange students, but was starting to feel so sick that Mr. Polvèche had his friend take me to Mr. Polvèche's house (which is very beautiful). This is where I took my 5 hour nap. Finally, my host family picked me up, but I still didn't have my bags, because they were in Mr. Polvèche's other car! I went to my new house and met this crazy dog! Sarah, my host sister, thinks that he will learn to like me after a couple of days. I went back to Mr. Polvèche's house to get my bags, where I met another exchange student! She is really nice, and we go to the same school! Finally, I went back to my new home and finished unpacking with Sarah, who was dying to look at my clothes. Sarah is really helpful, because she knows English! Also, she wrote some words on a board for me to memorize, which is very helpful! After, we ate dinner, and went to bed. Sarah gave me some candy called les Betises de Cambrai, which is really good. And it also makes a great midnight snack!
