Bonjour everyone ! It's Breanna Again. So far I've had an amazing trip with these girls and we've became so much closer. Since we didn't want to waste our last day, dreading what lies ahead we decided to put it behind us and spend the whole day out. With all the food and attractions we are still under budget which gave us room to splurge on a wonderful breakfast at the beach. In Cannes France there are many wonderful places to eat but we decided on a trendy cafe named Volpute. This Trendy Cafe is for small snacks or a lunch break. Since tea is very popular in Europe, we all decided on trying different types of the multiple tea's this cafe offered. I ordered the Kiss of an angel and the name lived up to its name. Each sip was very delicate with hints of peach, cinnamon and included spicy undertones of their specialty leaf imported from china. To top it off we all shared a native dessert of France called creme brulee. The walk back to the hotel was a sad one, because we knew it would be our last. Although we were very upset to be packing our bags, many of us felt a little home sick. The idea of going back to school and returning to our homes wasn't a dreadful one. As we packed our bags I looked at all the things I purchased that would be going home with me. I realized that I wasn't leaving France forever, I made my mark on this beautiful country along with my friends. France was also going to make a mark on North Carolina and our families as well. Our ability to fly across the ocean to another country allowed us to learn different ways of life and I was glad I got that chance. Before we left, all of us decided to use the hotel amenities to the extent. As me and Savannah headed to the Spa, Hailey, Lexi B. and Lexi G. booked it to the huge golf course, which over looked the famous French Rivera. After all the hotel fun all of us met by the pool and spent our last few hours splashing around. Soon enough we washed up, and put on our best attire for dinner at the most extravagant place of them all Le Meurice. This elegant, grand slam restaurant was enough to leave our jaws hanging. There was nothing like this in the us. Waiters were polite, the food tasted like heaven and the presentation of them were beautiful. Here we drank exquisite wines while feasting on the rarest produce in the world.
After dinner we went to a very nice live music venue called Le Carmen. This venue filled our ears with beautiful modern french music and chatter among tourist like our selves. We went to the lobby after this wonderful last day to pick up our luggage and take a cab back to the Airport. The next time you'll hear from us, we will be in North Carolina, thank for stay with us for the ride.
