Miscellaneous Photos-Final Week

Today is the day I bid farewell to Lille, so here are a few more random pictures to finish this out. I still have one more Nantes post to share, one more Lille post and I’m hoping to at least do a photo dump while we’re in Paris even if I can’t do a full blog.

gourmand pistache chocolate (basically a pistachio, chocolate muffin top-so good!)
TGV to Nantes!
Torrential downpour waiting for the tram in Nantes
Took this picture at 10:15pm-it stays bright so late here!
As I have now discovered les merveilleux are my new favorite French pastry this magnet seemed fitting!
And of course I couldn’t leave without having a few more…..lemon was the seasonal flavor and then the one on the right is caramel. Of the three I tried the lemon was my least favorite, but it was still good!

Thanks for following along! I’ll leave you (for now) with a quote from a French film one of the faculty shared with us last night: “Quand on vient dans le Nord on braie deux fois : quand on arrive, et quand on repart.” (Bienvenue chez les Ch’tis)

(When you come to the North you only cry two times-when you get here and when you leave)

A bientôt, Lille ❤️
