This weekend was ALL Rotary, because we had the famous Kermesse aux Boudins. Boudins are a sort of Belgian sausage with two different kinds: white and black. The white ones (while still being a bit mysterious), are mostly safe and taste very good (I think they're made with pork). The black ones are made with blood however, and not just a little bit. I'm a bit ashamed to admit that I couldn't bring myself to give the black ones a try, but I just couldn't bare too.
The exchange students (and future students who will be leaving next year!) helped out Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday afternoon serving, cleaning, and selling raffle tickets. This event is how my Rotary club makes about 90% of their money for the entire year... it's always a full house, almost everyone likes boudin! (but if not there were plenty of frites to go around). It was a very tiring weekend but it was fantastic!!!!

All of us are either already on our exchange or leaving soon :)
Full house!
