Comba's Art - Posted by Theo

This was posted by Theo on the school blog...I figured readers might be interested :)  

~Heather

Yesterday We went to an art exhibition is Combas. At

 muesem all of the paintings Were Divided Into Combas rooms.

 For example music or war. In the music room of paintings There Were

the rolling stones, jazz bands, orchestras and more. The coolest hand of

 music room was a goal wall.Exiting I know it wasn `t the wall That Was Cool

It Was What Was on the wall. And That Was at least 500 record sleeves of

Combas favorite musicians of all (thats only a fraction of historical collection).

 Why Comba liked music so much, Because He Was in a band. The

name of There Was Without Sideburns wierd name I know. Now onto the

war room. The war room was full of everything from sculptures of people

kicking people in the crotch to murals of the civil war. Personsally my

Was a favorite wall of the trojan war. The Trojan War Between the WAS

Romans and the Greeks, the war in the novels HAVING Were Some disorder

Getting Into the town. So They built a giant wooden horse and put about

30 men in it and Placed it at the gates of greece. That night the men snuck out of the

Opened the horse and the gates for the rest of Roman army. Then THEY burnted down

Slaughtered town and everyone in it. Thank you for reading and good night america

(And France).

France!!!!!

France is a very big country!  It may seem small but at least Lyon is big!!!  I love it here!  I missed home the first night but now I don't.  Today was our first trip to the Art Museé (Art Museum).  I rode the bus and Metro to Tet de O'rd Parc today as well.  School is fun!  We played cards all morning in our classroom.  The games were called Presidant and Kems.  I had a "picnic" in a classroom today because it rained all morning.  It is very hot.  We have a welcome bowling party today!  I made and tried French quiche!!!  It is delicious!!!!!!!!!!  French dark chocolate is very very very rich!  If you want something from France, comment what you want below!  Thanks!

  from Heather...Claudia's trip seemed to go well via the plane tracker. They were a little late landing at Heathrow, but that was fine. You can see from the above email that they arrived in Lyon around 10:45 our time (5:45 Lyon time).
