Exactly two weeks from this exact moment (10:10 p.m. EST to be precise,) I will be on a Boeing 777 operated by Air France airlines, preparing to take off. (or decoler, as the French would say)

Hey, I hope Choobak sees this! You might meet him there if he's not too busy. Btw, how long are you staying there and what's the purpose of the visit? I hope I don't sound too inquiring... Posts: 4519 | Registered: Sep 2003

Corwin--of course you don't sound too inquiring. I'm going to France to study French in Angers, a town approx. 150 miles southwest of Paris. I will be in the "city of lights" for 3 days, then in Angers for 4 weeks. I'm very excited about my upcoming trip. I've never been overseas before. Heck, I haven't even ever flown in a wide-body jet before, so the whole experience will be new
Choobak-- J’aimerais faire votre connaissance, et l'autre hatraqueurs et hatraqueses français si possible. Je suis très excité parce que j’adore votre langue, et les photos de votre pays que je regardais sont très belles. J’arriverai à Paris vendredi, le 1er juillet et je resterai là pendant trois jours. Ces jours sont les seuls jours dans lesquelles mon temps est flexible. Dimanche (4 juillet) je prendrais une autobus avec mes camarades de class et nous voyagerons à Angers, ou nous suivrons des courses de francais pour 4 semaines à l’Université Catholique de l’Ouest.
Pardonnez mes erreurs de grammaire, s’il vous plaît. J’adore votre langue, mais c’est difficile de l’apprendre ! Votre anglais est très bon. Merci beaucoup pour me dîtes « bon voyage. » Une petite correction : En anglais nous disons « have a good trip, » pas « well travel. » C'est la même difference avec «bon » et « bien » et le mot pour « un voyage » est « trip. »

Of course ! My practice of your language have a lack of automatism. So i train me here by reading and writing, but my speaking is not as well as my writing.
I think i can meet you this week. Maybe saturday. If i understand, you take the bus to Angers (beautiful town) Sunday. Why don't you take the Train ? It's faster and not such a high cost. It's the TGV.
Just a question : what is the difference between a trip and a travel ?
