So I'm doing good so far with my bloggin adventure! This is my second post in one day! We are just waiting to go to dinner (because they don't serve dinner until 7 pm here!) and I thought since I had a few minutes I would write about our afternoon! We ended up going to lunch in the town center because the sandwich shop Rob and Sara like to go to was closed and we were saving Subway for another time--we still had a sandwich though and I thought it was pretty good! The bread here is awesome and I just had a ham and cheese sandwich while Cam had ham, cheese, and tomato. After we finished lunch we checked out Toulouse a little bit with Rob and Sara as our tourguides...we went through the shopping area and down to the river. From the river we made a big loop up through the center of the town again where we stopped for ice cream because it was almost 100 degress outside! The ice cream was super delicious--I had vanilla with chocolate chip and we went there because Rob and Sara said they do something cool with their ice cream and sure enough--they made a flower out of the ice cream! Vanilla was the middle scoop so that was the center and then they made the other flavor to look like petals coming off the middle scoop! I meant to take a picture but my ice cream was melting so fast that I didn't want to waste any of it ;) So I guess I HAVE to go back and eat some more ice cream so I can take a picture to show you guys! :) After we cooled off with ice cream (Cam didn't eat any though--he just had water) we went through another part of town that led to the parks. The parks were awesome because guess what? It's so humid here and it rains enough here that stuff was actually green! It was a welcome sight for Cam and I because back home everything is fried. We spent a while walking through the gardens and parks and eventually made it back home to the hotel where we have been chilling the last couple of hours--we also tried to catch up with some family (although I didn't get to talk to everyone-I will try again either later or tomorrow!),checked our emails, and made sure everything was ready for Cam for work in the morning...it is SO weird not having my phone to check and text everyone on--it will probably just be off most of the trip because I have no service here what so ever. So the best way to get ahold of us is either by email, FaceTime, or Skype. We still don't have the wireless set up here---we bummed some wireless off of Rob and Sara earlier but we will get that done soon also! Tonight at dinner I will ask Rob and Sara what our address is so I can let you all know...we hope you all have a great evening!
