French Students

[Rerun]

I have two French 16 year old girls staying with me for a month.  They were hard pressed to find homes and since I have bunk beds in my guest room they asked if I could take two.  The sad part is these kids were told that these "families" chose them and now they want to know what I read about them that I would choose them to come stay with me.  WTF? 

They are busy during the week going to all the places that I would normally take my guests so now what do I do with them.  Luckly they are happy sun bathing in the back by the pool.  The pool is just one of those blow-up jobs that is about 14' across and 2 1/2 feet deep.  Oh well, they can get wet.

I'm afraid they will get too much sun.  They have been out there for over an hour.  I keep bringing them ice water etc.  I hope they are having fun.  I have The Beach Boys playing for them.

Be careful Rerun you don't want to send them back crispy.

Maybe take them over to CityWalk at night and have dinner, or The Grove.   I used to love going to events at UCLA and shopping in Westwood when I was a teen, and the Rose Bowl Flea Market too.   Are they going to Catalina?  The Venice Beach promenade?  How about going to Vazquez Rocks to take pictures?

This is interesting, because I am now in the midst of coordinating a 15 day language stay for 18 students from Guadeloupe (French oversea department in the Caribbean).  I used to do this in my country, but this is the first time in my present British Virgin Islands.  I had a very hard time getting families.   Some people even signed up and then backed out.  They will be here from July 30 to August 14.  I have a very packed programme for them so that the most thing the families have to do most days is get them to a point in the morning and pick them up at night.  There is so much to see in the Virgin Islands, I know they are going to have a great time.  August is also the time of our kind of Carnival - August Festival - days of festivities.
Here is the programme I planned for them.
