As the weather has gotten warmer, we have been trying to make the most of our time outside of class to enjoy the beauty of God’s creation surrounding us as well as develop deeper relationships with people here in France. So, we have done several hiking trips in the mountains nearby. Here are a few pictures from our excursions:
The gorgeous flowers also cause some people (like Brian) to suffer from seasonal allergy symptoms.
However, the pleasant aroma that they give off is in great contrast to the scent of the pastures that are all around us in this small town.
And since it is a small town, we had to go to Chambery for Thad to visit the orthodontist. It was a day full of delayed trains and changed plans that meant we were able to do a little unexpected sight-seeing! Then, Brian and Josiah had to take a special trip to visit the town, just for fun. Eila, on the other hand, was forced to do sight-seeing and learning on a field trip with her FLE (French as a 2nd language) class to Chambery. It wasn’t as bad as she had feared.
