Flying to France and the first day.

The trip started from Kouvola bus station on Sunday 18th September. A taxi came to pick us students and teachers up on 03.00am and then the trip could start. We drove to Helsinki-Vantaa International Airport. The flight was estimated at 7.30 but we were so early that when we had left our bags and got through security check, we ate some breakfast in the café and slowly arrived at waiting area. The flight was nice and went pretty fast and it was also a little earlier in the destination at Paris Charles de Gaulle airport, at about 10.20. We took our bags and walked to the taxi that was waiting for us. 

We drove to Rouen that was 1,5 hours far from Paris. When we arrived there, at the hotel was waiting the headmaster of Institut St. Joseph, who helped us to get the hotel rooms in Rouen and welcomed us to France. We took our suitcases to the rooms and after that went to check the places outside. We found one nice street restaurant " Holy Moly Gourmet Burger ", kind of like a burger place. The burgers were pretty nice and the fries were little different than anywhere else.

 When everyone had eaten, we went walking along the streets and checked some places and cathedrals


The streets in Rouen were so beautiful and the architecture was entirely different than in Finland. 

We arrived slowly back to the hotel and took a nap in our hotels rooms, because we were so tired from travelling. Our hotel room was nice and comfortable.


After a nap we went outside for an evening walk and went to buy some evening snack from Carrefour market. I bought a "baguette" and some water and some cheese snacks. In  Carrefour i saw the french cheeses and other products for the first time. The cheese fridge caught my eye.

After the evening walk we ( Minni, Sonja teacher and I) arrived to hotel and just took a shower, chilled a little bit and went to sleep enough early :) .
