"Be Our Guest" Part 3

Mont Saint-Michel was amazing!

Ladies and Gentlemen, today I shall be talking about my trip to Mont Saint-Michel, an island in Normandy. I have to tell you. Everywhere I went, my family and I were always surrounded by people. Tons of people. It's normal since we did go around tourist season and a lot of people were just wanting to visit the places and historical structures. Regardless of all of that, the sightseeing part was amazing and I loved every since minute of it. (P.S. I realized my formatting was a little weird when viewed on the mobile version Odyssey so I have changed it so you are able to view on your mobile devices.)

On the way to the island of Mont Saint-Michel, we could see the castle from afar and decided to stop at the side of the road (lol I know) and take some scenic pictures.

That day, it was very windy and sunny that day. The wind was blowing so hard that my hair was just going wild and I didn't have a hair tie to secure together. #longhairproblems

And my grandma trying to look derby-ish.

After all those pictures, we got back into the car and started driving towards the castle parking, where we were met by a ton of people touring the island as well.


Inside the walls, it was super crowded (as you can see from the above picture but that was only the outside). As we got past the walls, the walkway was filled. You couldn't even take a single "touristy" picture because the place was so crowded. We walked up the stairs to where we could view the scenery from the castle.

Other that the view from the above picture, there wasn't much to see because everything cost money, such as dining and lounging and also a merchandise store, where I bought a postcard while I was there. From sight-seeing the entire place, it was pretty exhausting and fun all at the same time. But as the day went by, it was time to say goodbye. And soon we were far away from the castle.

And as we got further away from the beautiful place, we took some pictures to say our goodbyes.

And we got very far to a super-market that my granduncle couldn't help but want a picture of. (LOL)

And this marks the end of my wonderful to Mont Saint-Michel. Stay tune for next week of my last few days in France and a tiny little trip to Belgium and England! :)

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
