Big elephant!
Today Noel and i went for a drive to get my bus pass, and we also went for a drive around Nantes. We stopped in this island in the middle of the loire river. Noel told me to close my eyes, and i walked around the corner until he said, open. i opened my eyes and here was this massive mechanical elephant (see pic below). We walked inside this ginormous building and there was so many handbuilt machines. they were so amazing. Noel voulenteered me to go on a simulater of a boat in a storm. we had to put on raincoats, and a special hat, and as soon as the wind and rain began, my hat blew off. it was so much fun. later, we actually went on the elephant, and it drove slowly around the island. It was such a fun day.
