A fabulous day with Honey, And the AUSSIES win!!!!!!!!

Well..what a great day!!!
Today i woke up fairly early and went to meet honey at her school at 9:00am after her class. After that we went to a big indoor shopping center, a massive shoe shop, and a massive sports shop. After we did just 'a bit' of shopping we went and had lunch at this buffay type restaurant. It was so so yum... We had nice salads, wraps, and some fries. There, i also saw 2 teachers from my school, and a nice family who came and sat neer us so we had a nice chat to them... in french of course. After that we went back on the tram and into the city, where we went strait to the 'Jardin Des Plants' and sook some photos and had a nice walk around.

(If some of these photos are a bit fuzzy, it's because we are freezing cold and laughing at the same time. That day, the forecast said it was going to snow, but it didnt quite snow, but the minimum temperature was -3 degrees and the maximum was about 4 or 5 degrees)



After the Jardin des Plantes, we went to a museum of art and then to this wonderful cathedral.

And this is us on the tram. Everyone was giving us really wierd looks, both because we were taking a photo on a tram, and also because we were speaking english.

Then after the historical features of Nantes, we went into the city and had a nice hot chocolate for afternoon tea and to get all warmed up. Then....we went shopping again!!! By the time we were finished shopping it was about 4:45 so we headed back down to the tram line. just before we went to the tram line, we stopped and had a look at 'Les Marches De Noel' (christmas markets) , and i bought a big lolly-pop for sarah, and then we got on the tram. I said goodbye to honey at her stop (by doing the 'kisses', 2 of them here in Nantes, but sometimes four), and then i continued for another 15 minutes to my stop, where i cought the bus back home. Then when i got home i got ready really quickly for a National game of wheelchair basketball. It was at a stadium only about 2 minutes away from our house, and it was between St Herblain, and A team from neer Paris. The game was so close, at full time the score was 41-41, so they had an extera 5 minutes, and we won 53-52. It was such a good game, its amazing the tactics and everything thay use, and also how ther just get strait back up if their wheelchair falls over.
So after that match, we raced back home, had dinner, and then sat infront of the tv for the rugby: Australia vs France. Before the match started we were making bets, like if australia wins, im sleeping in the garage, etc!!! So i had my australian flag, and the rest of the family had their french flag. It was the best game, we just kept scoring try after try!!! My cheecks were sore from smiling, and their eyes were sore from crying!!!!!!
I was so relieved, when we won. 59-16!!!! Im going to have alot of fun on monday, bragging about how good australia is!!!!!! Lucky we didnt loose, otherwise id be getting teased!!!!
This is me and sarah with our flags, during the National Anthem before the match.

That was such a great day!!! And only 3 more weeks of school until the Christmas Holidays!!! YAY!!!
