French Albi exchange: day 3 Friday 7/6/13

We spent Friday morning at the school with our pen pals, following their timetable. Some of us were able to talk about Arbroath in the English class, as pupils were doing a quiz on Scotland and Arbroath. The English teacher who is in fact American, was referring to us as the “Scotties”. At interval pupils were very friendly, we played table tennis or chatted and afterwards we played board games during their study time in their foyer. We discovered two new card games which everybody enjoyed. At lunchtime we ate again in the canteen and the food was better than the day before but healthy. We had tomatoes, salad, melon or sardines for starter, beef stew with pasta, chocolate sauce with pears, pineapple, yoghurt or cheese. Afterwards some of us went kayaking on the river Tarn with two of the PE teachers whose main sport is kayaking. For most of us, except Caelan it was a new experience. Some of us were struggling and Mr Graydon tried to push us by promising us an ice cream. A small group went into town, had a soft drink in a café watching people go past and afterwards we went on  the small train that took us around the town.
