Two days of class...

Doug and I both really like our classes.  Today I only had 6 people in my class... one woman from Ukraine, a girl from Colombia, a girl from China, a woman from Turkey, and an older man (at least 60) from Germany.  The man from Germany is really big and really loud... but funny.  

Doug is evidently very advanced for his class... he had been doing some studying on his own, so he has already mastered the basics that they are now covering.  He can write about the students in his class later.

Sunday and Monday afternoons we went to Bellecour, the area of town with lots of students, universities, etc.  This afternoon we went to the big park (Parc de la Tete d'Or) and looked at the animals in the zoo in the middle of the park.  We ended up walking around the park for about an hour and a half and still didn't get to see all of it.  

Tonight is church... they do church on Tuesday nights here.   Since younger kids don't have school on Wednesday, it makes it easier for families to not have to rush home on Tuesdays to get everyone to bed early.  A group from Harding is in town this week, so I guess we will see them tonight.  We are looking forward to meeting the famous Robert McCready... we have heard so much about him from people in France and SXM.
