Hi Ho..It's Home From School We Go

Yesterday was the last day of school before Halloween Vacations! It's great! I haven't gotten a day off for Halloween since lower school, let alone a full ten days!
In school I didn't have to take the quiz in French, I had a free period, we didn't do any work in Economy because Mme. Braun berated the class about work that I didn't have to do, we worked on a dialogue all Spanish class, and we learned about Snow White and the Seven Dwarves in History. Just kidding, we talked about the evolution of movies, which included the first Disney picture of Snow White. Then, we watched half of a movie that we will finish after break.
Last night, I went to a dinner with Christophe and Sabine (Heloise wanted to stay home) celebrating one of Sabine's collegues' retirement. It was in a restaurant that doubled as a discotheque. I think it was a theme night, too, because all of the music that they played was American disco music. The meal was another long one. We arrived at around 8h15, socialized a bit, and sat down at around 8h30. The food was good, but it was super rich. They served a ham and cheese crepe topped with an egg and more ham and mushrooms covered with cream and a chocolate banana crepe. I also learned that cider here is not apple cider. The main part of the meal didn't arrive until 10h45, and dessert didn't arrive until 1h00 AM. Needless to say, it was after 2h00 AM when we got home.
