Keyboard

In France they use a different key board for the computer. Can you spot the differences with the one we use in Australia?

Hotel de Ville

In France the Hotel de Ville is not a hotel but the town hall. This is where the local government make their decisions for the local area. This is a picture of the Hotel de Ville in Annecy.

Tomorrow is my last day at MACC for this term. I will be on long service leave for the rest of the term. I will be travelling to USA for a week then to France. I am fortunate enough to have enrolled in a French Language School in a small village in the French Alps called Annecy. It is a beautiful medieval town on a lake, surrounded by snowcapped mountains.  I am looking forward to brushing up on my language skills and using them when I return.  Mr. Sales will be taking all Language classes in my absence.
