Snails

How do I get this out?  Do I really want to eat these?

Savouring the taste

Where Daniel's best holiday friend lives- Toad hole.  Daniel fed him crickets

Both boys thoroughly enjoyed the experience, Daniel especially enjoyed trying the different food, both boys asked for things in shops in French and spent time with French families, playing games.  Language definitely wasn't a barrier.  Both boys would love to go back and are adding different places to their travel list.
