Day+6+(19+July+2011)

Another hot, sunny day-not a cloud in the sky. Madame Souch and Madame Win were boiling after a short walk up to the best boulangerie (Bakery) in town to order our sandwiches for the last day. Wow what an amazing place with yummy breads, cakes and pastries all beautifully presented.

The teachers arrived at CREIPAC just as students were coming out of lessons. Last day for lessons and everyone said that it had been more fun today with some interactive activities. Bus was waiting so we all piled on inlcuding a group from Craighead High School in Timaru who were there on a 10 day trip. After being dropped off at the port the group walked through town to the main square 'Place des Cocotiers' where Madame Souch handed out CPF 10000 to groups of 3 to buy their lunch. Change of 3000 to be returned. Students were soon back munching on baguette sandwiches and yummy looking pastries. There was enough left over to have an ice cream too-yum! One group (Abbey, Caitlin and Jenny) got in to a spot of bother with incorrect change being given so Madame Souch was called in to sort it out. The students were right and after a bit of negotiating we got the money. Rochelle's group searched high and low for vegetarian options and finally found something.

The rest of the afternoon was spent trawling the shops looking for the perfect souvenirs and present for everyone at home. Students were a bit shocked by the prices though. T-shirts, colourful summer dresses and sarongs were popular choices. The temperatures rose to about 26 degrees so everyone was happy to find a shaddy spot about 4pm to wait for the host families. It just so happened it was opposite Macdonalds and a few couldn't resist a couple more purchases.

By 5pm everyone had been picked up for the last night with their host families.
