Traveling abroad is a pleasant thing. The new environment can change people's mood and give them the opportunity to relax. Going on vacation in France is undoubtedly a new experience for Albert.
British people like to travel. Herb and Daisy planned this trip together very early. The couple is very experienced in this aspect. When they were preparing to take their children on a trip, they tacitly planned the places to travel.
Choose France.
Albert speaks French.
Yes, this is why Herb and Daisy chose to travel to France.
When traveling abroad, language barrier is actually a troublesome thing.
Now, they don't need to worry about this problem at all, let alone deal with travel agencies. They can go wherever they want. As for the translation issue, Albert is completely competent.
This can also be regarded as training Albert's French ability.
After all, language is something that is best mastered by speaking it more and using it more.
The plane had just landed at the airport, and the staff were stunned by this little translator.
Herb and Daisy liked to see the stunned and shocked expressions of these French people, which greatly satisfied their little vanity.
Look, our baby is the best!
A few days before arriving in France, the Anderson family visited several famous French attractions, such as the Champs Elysées, the Arc de Triomphe, the Seine River... and they also did not forget to take a lot of photos as souvenirs.
Of course, this may be related to Albert saying that he would select a few good-looking photos and make them into moving magic photos.
The remaining time was spent on a scheduled Basque beach vacation.
Blowing the sea breeze, sunbathing, and looking at the beauties in swimsuits are really pleasant to the body and mind.
Albert's favorite activities are surfing and swimming. In his previous life, he was a landlubber and rarely went to the swimming pool. It was rare for him to use a panel to learn how to swim. How could Albert give up the fun of swimming at the beach so easily?
In the hot summer, you should play in the water at the beach and admire the beauties in swimsuits.
During his vacation at the Basque beach, Albert also met some French people and often surfed together. As his French skills and experience increased, he became more and more proficient in using French, and he had no problem in ordinary reading, writing and communication.
Of course, I had to borrow the surfboard from someone else.
Albert's popularity here is quite high. To the romantic French, this British boy who speaks French and is good at surfing is full of mystery.
"Albert, Albert, put on the sunscreen for me." Nia threw down the half-pile of sandcastles and ran towards Albert who had just landed, holding a towel in her hand.
"Why don't you ask mom to apply sunscreen for you?" Albert took the towel, wiped the seawater off his body, and asked casually.
"They are chatting with others." Nia pursed her lips in a certain direction, gesturing for Albert to see for himself.
Under the umbrella, Herb and Daisy were chatting with a young couple who were traveling to France together. They didn't know what they were talking about, but they were talking very enthusiastically.
"Oh, it's really unreliable." Albert muttered.
"Yes, yes, it's unreliable!" Nia nodded in agreement.
"Come here, lie down on the beach chair, and I will help you apply sunscreen." Albert took a sip of juice, took the sunscreen from Nia, let his sister lie on the beach chair, and started to help her apply sunscreen.
.
In this hot summer, if you don't apply sunscreen when you are in the sun, your skin will be sunburned.
"Albert, is there a magic academy in France?" Nia narrowed her eyes comfortably and asked curiously.
"Yes, there are three magic schools in Europe, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the UK, Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in France, and the last one is in Scandinavia, called Durmstrang College."
Albert said softly while helping Nia apply sunscreen.
"How did you know?" Nia asked again.
"There are relevant records in the Hogwarts library. The relationship between the three schools has always been good." Albert revealed, "It is said that they will get together to hold competitions every few years."
"Then tell me, why didn't we encounter anything related to magic when we came to France?" Nia asked depressedly.
"Because there is no intersection between the lives of ordinary people and wizards, they naturally cannot come into contact. Okay, it's done." Albert suddenly stood up and said, "I'll get the juice for you."
"Magic Academy?" The young couple looked towards Albert with a strange expression.
"Albert likes to read," Daisy explained casually.
"I am planning to write a book." Albert smiled and said towards the young couple, "Writing a novel related to magic."
The young couple looked at Albert in surprise. Unexpectedly, this child who was less than twelve years old had already started planning to write a book?
"We have always supported him in this aspect." Herb coughed, "Just like we support him in learning French, Albert has never let us down. He has always been the best."
Speaking of his son, Herb did not hesitate to praise him and even planned to ask Albert to speak a few words in French for everyone to listen to.
Albert resisted the urge to reach out and cover his face, and found an excuse to escape.
"Why don't you continue to bask in the sun?" Albert asked as he looked at Nia who stood up and handed her the juice.
"This time I will help you apply sunscreen." Nia said suddenly.
"No, I can do it myself." Albert shook his head and refused. Just as he was about to apply sunscreen on himself, a slightly familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Little handsome boy, do you want us to help you apply sunscreen?"
Several young girls in swimsuits passed by with surfboards and greeted Albert with a smile.
"No, thank you." Albert declined politely, "Let's go surfing together when we have time."
"Oops, I'm so shy." The girls in swimsuits laughed and left.
"Albert's French is getting better and better!" Herb said to the young husband, "When he first came to France, his tone was still a little stiff."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The young couple who were still hesitant at first finally believed it, and they were all envious of Herb for having a genius son.
Nia looked at the leaving figures of the swimsuit girls and asked warily: "Who are they?"
"Friends I met while surfing."
"So, what kind of thing do you like?"
"Okay, don't mess around, just lie down and bask in the sun."
"I want to help you apply sunscreen." Nia insisted.
"Okay, okay." Albert agreed reluctantly.
In fact, Nia had no experience in applying sunscreen. In the end, under the guidance of Daisy, she helped Albert apply it again.
Dinner is always something to look forward to. French food is indeed better than British food. This is a view that the Andersons unanimously agree on.
"Where's dad?"
Albert's eyes moved away from the French fish soup brought by the waiter. It was rare for Herb to miss dinner time.
"I went to book tickets for the opera house." Daisy explained, "I should be back soon. Eat first if you're hungry."
"Opera house? Where's the opera house?" Albert felt that he couldn't appreciate such a high-end thing.
"Opéra Bastille."
"The tickets there are not cheap." Albert frowned.
As the second largest opera house in France, tickets are naturally not cheap.
"Herb said that since he came to France, he shouldn't miss the opera." Daisy comforted, "Besides, our budget is still sufficient, and this vacation is cheaper than imagined."
"When did it happen?" Albert asked again.
"Before going back, I just finished watching the opera and took a flight home." Daisy said with a smile, "Does Nia like opera?"
"I don't know, I haven't seen it." Nia shook her head and said, "Is the opera good?"
"I really can't appreciate this kind of art. How about we go to the cinema to watch a movie instead?" Albert suggested.
"I'm afraid not." It was Herb who answered him.
"Have you already bought the ticket?" Albert asked in disbelief.
"I've booked the tickets. How can I miss the opera when I come to France?" Herb said with a smile, "I think you will like it."
"As long as you are happy." Albert tilted his head speechlessly, not intending to continue to dwell on this issue.
