Today after our trip to the Boulangerie & Patisserie we took tour of Vannes with Historian, Julien Danielo. We visited buildings dating from the 16th century and walked through the Marche/Market. We also went into the Hotel de Ville/Mayor's Office - a beautiful building with decor similar to the Paris Opera House. After the tour their was a birthday lunch for Alessandra with several of the French and American students from the Exchange. She said it was her best birthday ever!
