We we're suppose to wake up early today and leave the house at ten but of course that didn't happen and we woke up at 1030
We got dressed and left the house
And drove an couple hours to Pepes house in Quevy
Which is a sort of suburb of Lille
I watched oitnb on the way there and got a major headache
When we got there all of Damien's family was there and we had to kiss EVERYBODY hello
We went in and sat down and had some lady fingers and champagne
And then went to the garden
Pepe has a giant unpicked cherry tree in his backyard
So we all went out there and picked a couple of buckets
After we cleaned them we went out to eat at this restaurant a few minutes away
Our food took forever to get but was definitely worth the wait
I got a Bavette which is a steak with a side of pasta
The portions were huge and it was all so delicious
We all finished eating and the younger people went outside to watch the parade that was happening after Awhile we went back in because it was so hot and everybody was ready to go
Once pepe went outside he decided that he wanted to stay and watch the rest of the play which was probably another 2 hours
There is no compromising with that man
We got I've cream and the carnival was finally over
We drove back to the house and pepe wouldn't get out of the car because he wanted to go to a bar
But we told him it was closed and just went inside and had champagne
Alise and I went back outside to pick more cherries and then eventually everyone was helping
The better cherries were at the top so eventually we were climbing this giant tree
We sat outside for a couple hours and then ordered a ton of fries from a place on the corner
Fries in France are 5x greasier than any fries I've ever had
So dinner was pretty much fries and cherries
After we helped clean up we went hope
It was close to midnight when we finally got home
So we all showered and went to bed
