We stopped off at a cafe for a drink and just to sit down, after walking around for an hour or so. We'd picked up a free magazine from FUSAC ( originally France USA Contacts). Inside, Jennifer found a puzzle. The challenge was to map names of characters from American culture to the names they are known as in France. In France, Spongebob Squarepants is called Bob L'eponge', pronounced "Bob Lay-poange." We couldn't stop laughing and saying "Bob lay-poange! Bob lay-poange!"
