もしかしてP1の最後まで時間が取れそうにないかも?と思ったので、
行ってきましたよ。行くのが長年の夢の1つであった、モン・サン・ミシェルへ!
最近はあまり感動しなくなってきてますが、流石に最初に視界に
入ってきたときはちょいと感動♪してしまいました。^^
内部は以前行ったエズの街やアルカトラズをやや思い出させますが、
(この修道院は以前、監獄としても使われていたから?)
修道院のテラスからの眺めと、逆に地上からのモン・サン・ミシェルの眺めは
言葉では言い表せないほど良かったです。
土曜の午後、授業が終わってから行ったのですが、
GPSがあらぬ道を示したりしてくれたので、宿まで片道6-7時間、
帰りも渋滞に巻き込まれて5-6時間もかかってしまいました。
まぁ、おかげでフランスの道路の仕組みやGPSの使い方が分かったし、
帰りには偶然ヴェルサイユ宮殿とHECの側を通ることが出来ました。
その後遅くまで予習していたので、今朝の授業は頭が回らず。。。
"Play hard, Work hard."はなかなか難しいですね。。。
----------------------------------------
I expected that we would not have a couple of free holidays
hereafter until the end of P1 term,
so I visited Le Mont Saint Michel last weekend.
As I get older, I have been becoming less impressed by anything.
However, it was not applied for this experience;
I was really moved when I saw it at the first sight.
The structure and design reminded me of
the town of Eze and alcatraz prison,
(actually this monastry was once used as prison)
but the view from inside and outside of the Mont Saint Michel
were really nice and hard to express in words.
I departed Insead after taking classes Saturday morning,
and it took me nearly 6-7 hours to get there
due to the misdirection of my GPS navigation system.
In return, I also had to spend 5-6 hours to get back
due to the traffic jam on my way to home.
However, I could understand how the traffic in France went
and coincidentally encountered the Versaille Palace and HEC.
(HEC is one of the business school in France)
Before getting to sleep, I studied for today's class.
So I was not actually awake this morning...
(I understood the class less than usual)
"Play hard, work hard" is not an easy stuff...
