Final Night in France

We are in our Hotel outside of Paris near the airport getting ready to have our last dinner together. Our plane leaves tomorrow at 1 p.m. from Paris. We will arrive at Albany International Airport at about 10:25 p.m. local time. We are looking forward to getting home, seeing everyone, unpacking and sleeping in our own beds! 


This was an awesome experience for my students and our reception at SFX was exceptional. I could not have asked for a more awesome group of students with whom to travel to France. They all made excellent progress in improving their skills in French and I received many compliments about our students from the teachers and administrators at our sister school. I am supremely proud of them!


See you all soon! À bientôt!

Saying "Au revoir" is dur, dur!
