Happy Bastille Day
Unfortunately I missed out on the Portland Bastille Day festivities this weekend, but I will make up for it by doing my own personal “quatorze juillet” celebration on my own this evening… Need tips on how to best celebrate the French national day? Go here. Hint: it includes drinking French wine, eating French cheese and possibly singing La Marseillaise.
[and I apologize for the quality of the photo… it’s from the study abroad archives; something that I had to scan in because it was taken in film form!]
I really enjoyed reading your blog. Nice to see other francophiles out there!

French wine, cheese… la Marseilleise… ‘Allons enfants de la Patrie, le jour de gloire est arrivĂ©!!!’…. and most important for the 14th of July : practice your headbutt !
