Today it was -10 degrees in Kristiansand. First we went to classes, english, scienses and three lucky students had french. After we presented our presentation about vikings and Norway. Then we prepared a show with piano,singing and dancing.
After school we went shopping in Sorlandssenteret. Then we went a resturant to celebrate Victors birthday. We ate tapas.
It was a nice day and we did alot of things. It was fun!
Today, we visited a folk museum in Kristiansand at 9:00. We saw middle age houses where people lived about from 1200 to 1800.
Then, in the same museum, the guide showed us a big model of the center of Kristiansand.
The two norwegian correspondents who were with us saw that we were frozen after seeing this museum (it was outside), so they decided to bring us into a coffee to drink some hot chocolate until 11:50. We were a bit shocked by the price : the equivalent of 5 euros !
Then, we took the bus again to go to take a boat in Søgne. We did a Hollen island little tour and it was so cold that even those who were sick stayed inside. It was only minus 3, but with the wind it felt colder !
To end this tiring day, we went to ice-skating at 5:30 with all people (exepted 4 who stayed at home) until 8:00. There were some falls, but fortunately nothing really serious !
At the end of this day, we were exhausted !
8:56, Tuesday Februray 7th.
Clemence, Lucille and Anais.
We took the bus at 9 o'clock for Lindesnes. The french people had a lot of energy.
We arrived at 11h15, we visited one of the two last lighthouse of Norway. It´s located at the southern part of the country. Then we had breakfast at the lighthouse´museum (apple, orange, milk, coffee, tea and gingerbread). After we watched a movie about Lindesnes.
Then we left the museum for a presentation of the painter Amaldus Nielsen in Mandal, a little town near the sea between Lindesnes and Kristiansand. We went back to Kristinsand at 4.30 pm.
The French people were happy at the end of this cold, long and interesting trip.

Hi worry parents and happy students !
Today everybody was with their penfriends. The most of us went to a place ( 30min of car ) to play snow games like young children. Some of us discovered the norvegian ski and others used sleds. For the lunch we made a fire in the snow, then we cooked sausages and prepared hot dog : it was very funny.
We have been very lucky today because, it has snowed a lot, but, it was very cold . We saw men who jumped with their skis as we can see during the winter Olympics Games.
To sum up the day, everybody had fun.
Sorry we don't add pictures but we have done the article with my cell phone. But we are going to put pictures tomorrow evening :-$ )
We hope that you will like this article, see you soon !

Saturday 4th February from Kristiansand
After the first night in our correspondant´s family, we visited Vågsbygd school, where most of the norwegian students go. It`s very nice : they have music rooms with drums and pianos, a theater, a dancing room. They all have a computer that the school offers them when they subscribe. We´ve been able to see that they have a very good english level !
At 3 O´clock we all left the school with our correspondants. Some students ate at the pizzeria, some others went on an island where they played scrabble.
It was a very nice day to begin this trip !
Lancelot and Corentin.
We left Caen at 7 a.m.
It was cold, a good introduction for us ...
First problem (and the only one for this day !) : One pupil has forgotten a document which allowed him to travel to another country ...
Fortunately, his parents send this document by mail, We printed it at the airport.
We didn't loose time to cross Paris from St Lazare station to Roissy Airport.
It was easy to check in luggage, we didn't have to wait for a long time.
After that, we went through customs, we removed shoes, belts, jewels ... bottle of perfume ...
We arrived at 5 a.m., it was snowing at Oslo.
At 7:30 we took off to Kristiansand. The airplane landed one hour later, we were a little bit rocked ... No problem !!!
We met our penfriends at the airport. Everybody was very happy ... and tired ...
See you tomorrow !
