Back!!

I'm back home from a wonderful week in the Dordogne! I had such a great time, although unfortunately, mum and dad wanted to rest so we didn't do much (I abandoned the daily videos about half way through the week). However, the holiday has still given me loads of ideas for here, and I have lots of photos to put up! I'm also going to put all the video I've taken into one longer holiday video and upload it.

Anyway, the place we stayed was lovely, and we were very lucky to be sharing a pool with teenagers of a similar age to me and my brother, which is always nice. We had two very enjoyable meals out and a very... err... interesting kayaking experience. I'll post about these in more detail next week (it was my birthday yesterday and my family are coming round today).

I also finished "L'étranger" which is great, now I'm focusing on "Jean de Florette", and still reading bits of Arthur Rimbaud's poetry. However, next week I'm going to be working loads- trying to finish off bits of holiday work before I go back to school.

A few of the best photos from the holiday (more to come!):

Me in Bergerac

My brother, George, jumping into the pool where we were staying at Montcaret.

Me in the pool on a lilo :)

Me on the banks of the Dordogne- stopping for lunch during a bike ride.

Kayaking down the Dordogne with my dad.

An "epic" photo, according to my brother.

Me at Harvey's (a restaurant in Montcaret)- the day before we came home.
Bye for now!
