My first of the first French classes I signed up for in July. We talked about the environment, nuclear energy, fuel sources, and various news items relating to this. I learned that "carbon footprint" is empreinte carbone or empreinte écologique, tout juste is the same as à peine, and a wind turbine is éolienne - a lovely word.
Visited maaseru with Pim, and saw a bit of Independence Day, which looks even sillier than it did when it first came out.
Met Lynne at Bridgehead for coffee, and had their chai glacé.
Had another picnic by the duck pond for lunch. This time, I scattered some leftover bird seed on the rocks and lawn, courtesy of the Little Feathered Guys. A redwing blackbird living in the tree I was sitting under found it, quite happily.
A nice day, but I find the heat saps my energy. I must remember to wear a hat if it's sunny and hot again tomorrow.
