Over our first of four two week paid vacations we took a day trip to Soisson. Soisson is about 30 minutes away from us by train. Although it's the same size as Laon, it has a very different feel. First of all it's flat, so less impressive when you first approach it. Secondly, 80% of it was destroyed in the first world war. Thus it has a much more modern feel.
Hilights of the day include meeting up with Haley, who graduated from my college a few years ago, and other Soisson assistants. Also, Chinese food for the first time since being in Europe! All you can eat Chinese food...
