Inside the school!

That's my room! The first full window from the left on the top. So far Limoux is just like Tours in that every house has these shutter type things. Most look ,ore like traditional shutters than these. Everyone closes them in the evening when they turn their lights on, and then open them again in the morning. I always find this interesting because in the US shutters are only for decoration, and most people do not draw their curtains at night.

I guess I'm going to call this the courtyard. It's an open space where the students can hang out.


Looking toward the cafeteria in the ground floor and the salle des profs on the second floor.


The view from another part of the hallway on the second floor looking at the Internat(I think)--where the students stay.

Looking down from the second floor on to the door to my building...up three flights from there is my room! It's called the second floor though in France. What we call the first floor, they call the ground floor--so what we call the second floor, they call the first, and so on.

One of the hallways on the second floor. Everything at this school is outside except for the actual rooms.

This is looking down the steps outside the mailbox en of the Salle des Profs. There's a kind or courtyard below where students hang out. If you look accross the top row of windows you can see mine near the end--it' the one that is only open a foot or so.
