history of resistence museum

When jessica was here she and I were going to go to see the museum of the resistence but it was closed. I went today. It was interesting. It outlined how the french resistance fought to kick the nazis out of France during the Second world war as well as highlights of the holocaust. Something interesting though. The french actually helped thousands of jews hide from the nazis, which I though was amazing. Of course right afterwards I went home and watched schindlers list. Why I dont know. But its an ok movie i guess. Some argue it isnt oscar worthy but it was a good movie none the less.

That pretty much occupied my day. hehehe. But for dinner I wanted to try this italian place across the street from me. Anyways I went there and had a great pate crout made of duck adn pistacchio. But for main course I thought I was getting a poultry of some sort, but instead got octopus. Now I'll be honest I was a bit grossed out and almost vomited, but I said to myself be open minded here and try something new so I did, yeah well after one bite I knew I wasnt going to finish it. So I ate the rice adn sauce adn lots of bread. But I felt bad so I explained I wanted to try something new but octopus just wasnt for me. So then they said I could have dessert on the house, so I didnt leave hungry. I had chocolate mouse of course. And when I went to pay they actually charged me for dessert. Whatever I let it be. And note...dont eat octopus it actually makes me want to vomit right now.

Anyways I am heading to Milan and Ill stay at my brother in laws parents for one night and lucky for me they dont live far from the caterers. so maybe this will work out.

im looking so forward to going to italy im gettign excited...and not just because my roommate is trying to get rid of me. But I am really ready to move on.
