Train trouble

our 3rd day in int, we gathered toe market at juvicy to hang ard; kind of fun, e market goods r fresh, e sweets n pastries r unique. Meat too,rabbit meat is v common there. c a few dogs too. one thing i realise abt e dogs here. most of them r local breed n v nice. cannot find in spore. n europe is v dog friendli. the dogs here even noe how to cross e road by themselvesusing e pedestrain crossing. i try to make a ^pt of taking pics of every local dog i c. saw a golden retriever too,which reminds me of Baby(cocoa's fav male dog).due to e seasonal weather,e gr hair was shaved totalli n did not look so majestic to fit e temperature. or maybe it is juz this dog... I bought some pastries to share with e INT management pple coz they did not get to go. Sadli,they did not like it v much;too sweet they say.
We went to notre dame in e afternoon. a few other students joined us to form a large group of 16 pple. one from taiwan,1from us ,1from korea n & from hk. they had difficulty understanding our sporean jokes coz it is rather mixed. they even tot singlish was an official language with la as e most common word.
Not our best trip,but e most memorable so far. we seemed to be cursed tat day with e train railway system. firstli,e american Michael was lost in e train n did not come out at e rite station. we all waited for like half an hr there b4 he came back to our station. wat happened was we were seperated a little at e train coz of e crowd. when we alighted,he did not,n by e time he realised it,e door was already closing.helen shouted to him to go to e next station n come b,which he did. along this time,wei shiong n jiajun took another train to e next station n tried to find him. e moment they left,Michael came b!so we waited for jiajun n wei shiong. i find this whole incident v funny.
Tat incident turned out to be onli e beginning,n e 2nd incident was not so funny animore.after visiting e famous church in notre dame,going mohmad to visit a cathalic church n having an expensive lousy dinner ,we went moulin rouge juz to take a pic there. then we took a train to Gare du Nord n waited for our train back to Le Bras de Fer.e train never came. in fact there was lots of confusion among us as e sign boards keep on changing. one moment,they display tat e next train will go eg:
me:exucse me good sir,how do we go to Le Bras de Fer?
u have to find e line D4 n take it....
so where is it? it should be here,but e boards keep on changing here n there n we have waited a few hours here alreadi
u have to find e D4 line,u c e boards changing,means this is not D4...

another example
go to Gare de Lyon..then go over to le bras de fer
sir,is there a train there still;there seems to be a problem with e trains
go there n find out,if it is there,good,if it is not there..;well,then it is not there...

Excuse me,how do we take a bus to there? n which bus
there is no more trains..get out of e station now;;
so u can c our problem.. is not like we were not trusting them totalli,but we were a little desperate coz we were stuck in e railway. even we contact eric n some pple we knew in INT n they gave us wrong info,coz noone seems to noe abt e changes.. eric helped us a lot though,n we managed to reach back by 3am on bus
later,we find out tat e railway ard e central had some problems,hence jamming e system. anyway,it is an experience.e frenche teachers somehow knew abt it n teased us a little
we learn not to trust everything pple say. n in france,e railways behaving abnormalli without announcements is part of e expected.
btw,tat time e monument's name tat i forgot was called e arc of triumph. ok i will talk abt e music of festival which happend yesterday,but now i have to rush for french lessons..; yes.. i am learning french here.. dun laugh.
