Hello from France!

Hi Guys!
Hope you are all having a good time in my absence!
I'm posting some pictures from the Rallye du Canal du Midi. It is extremely hot here and the rowing is a lot of fun but very tiring. Our crew are doing well (currently in the top third). It is a beautiful canal with lovely quaint villages and fields of sunflowers all through the countryside. we have to get up at 5.30am to start racing at 8.00am and we're all in bed asleep by 9.30pm. The food is amazing and we're all practising our French with the locals who look at us blankly when we speak to them!
Missing you all... a little! Hope you're all behaving yourselves.

Love Ms Hood

    Hi Miss Hood
    So cool to hear from you. Sounds awesome where you are. You will be able to teach us the French you learn! We are missing you...... HEAPS! We have checked the weather out in Rome and it is super hot and sunny, sunny, sunny. Have fun. Love Olivia Keenan

    Your trip sounds amazing! I hope you are not enjoying the local cuisine so much that you are slowing the boat down! See you soon, safe journey.

    Good Work Mrs Hood.
    That really looks beautiful.
    Do you have lots of blisters?
    I find the vin rouge is good for those.
    See you in a few weeks.
    Bon chance avec les Regatta.
