Lille Workshop- 2011 - Day One

Where to start! A tough week for everyone- we were all pushed to our limits but we all got through it! So a big pat on the back to everyone.

As our working days were 8.30 am to 9.30 pm i was unable to post a blog as i had intended! so here it goes,,,

Day one- 6/2/2011

we arrive and are greeted by the french students for a stroll around Lille- a beautiful city with many squares surrounded by beautiful tall architecture.

A lovely Little Gothic style square with cloisters- with old books and records for sale

The opera house

an entrance to a metro station-Republique Beaux-Arts plus an amphitheatre???

Entrance of Jardin Vauban

We all make our way to a french restaurant where i tried snails for the 1st time!! The garlic source was delicious and the snail tasted of nothing! personally i don't see what all the fuss is about with them.
