 This week in Nice was by far my favorite. In biology we learned about marine mammals such as

whales, seals, walruses, and sea turtles. Although there was only a bit of information on them,

this was my favorite lecture because seals are my favorite animals! I am also very excited about

this lecture because we get to experience whale watching! Some French culture I have

experienced this week is the word “hup”. My host mother has been saying hup since we first

came, though recently I have heard so many other locals say it as well. Everytime our host mom

says it now, I say it back and she loves it.

 Over the first week of our study abroad program I have learned a fair bit, mostly concerning the cultural norms of the French, but also about marine biology. We covered a handful of interesting concepts, such as the many different species of fish, their environments, and their evolutionary adaptations, we even got to cut open some fish for first hand biology experience (I couldn't stomach dissecting them). The trip to the open air fish market was exciting, I had never seen anything like it before; although, the tram ride to the market had us packed in like sardines. I've gotten to eat almost as many species of fish as we've studied. Tomorrow we go snorkeling in the Mediterranean, I can't wait. I hope there are no icebergs.
