Going abroad for vacation is a delightful experience. The new environment can change one's mood and provide an opportunity to relax both physically and mentally. For Albert, going on vacation to France was undoubtedly a new and exciting experience.

The British people enjoy traveling, and Herbert and Daisy, who had planned this trip together for a long time, were experienced in this regard. When they decided to travel with their children, they had a mutual understanding to choose France as their destination.

Albert could speak French.

Yes, that's why Herbert and Daisy chose to go to France.

Language barrier can be a hassle when traveling abroad.

Now, they didn't have to worry about that issue anymore. They didn't even need to deal with travel agencies. They could go wherever they wanted, and Albert could handle the translation.

This was also an opportunity for Albert to improve his French language skills.

After all, when it comes to language, the more you speak and use it, the more proficient you become.

When the plane landed at the airport, the young translator left the airport staff amazed.

Herbert and Daisy enjoyed seeing the surprised and shocked expressions of the French people. It greatly satisfied their little vanity.

Look, our baby is the best!

During the first few days in France, the Anderson family visited famous French attractions such as the Champs-Élysées, the Arc de Triomphe, and the Seine River. They also took many photos as souvenirs.

Of course, this might be related to Albert's idea of selecting a few nice photos and turning them into moving magical pictures.

The remaining time was spent at a reserved beach resort in Basque.

Feeling the sea breeze, sunbathing, and admiring people in swimsuits were truly enjoyable.

Albert's favorite activities were surfing and swimming. In his previous life, he rarely went swimming as he was not fond of it. However, after using the Room of Requirement to learn how to swim, he couldn't easily give up the joy of swimming at the beach.

In scorching summer, one should play in the water at the beach and appreciate people in swimsuits.

During the vacation at Basque beach, Albert also made some French friends and often surfed together. With the increasing experience in using French, he became more proficient in reading, writing, and general communication.

Of course, he borrowed the surfboard from someone else.

Albert was quite popular here. To romantic French people, this English boy who could speak French and was good at surfing seemed mysterious in every aspect.

"Albert, help me apply sunscreen," Nia dropped the half-built sandcastle and ran towards Albert, holding a towel.

"Why don't you let Mom help you with the sunscreen?" Albert took the towel and wiped off the seawater from his body, casually asking.

"They are chatting with someone," Nia pursed her lips in a certain direction, indicating for Albert to take a look.

Under the beach umbrella, Herbert and Daisy were engaged in a lively conversation with a young couple who was also traveling in France. It was unclear what they were talking about, but both sides seemed to be enjoying the conversation.

"Ah, they're so unreliable," Albert grumbled.

"Yeah, yeah, so unreliable!" Nia nodded in agreement.

"Come here, lie down on the beach chair, and I'll apply sunscreen for you," Albert took a sip of juice, took the sunscreen from Nia, and had his sister lie down on the beach chair. He began applying sunscreen for her.

In this scorching summer, if you don't apply sunscreen, your skin will get sunburned.

"Albert, does France also have a magical school?" Nia asked curiously, squinting her eyes comfortably.

"Yes, there are three magical schools in Europe: Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Britain, Beauxbatons Academy of Magic in France, and Durmstrang Institute in the Nordic region," Albert said softly as he applied sunscreen to Nia.

"How do you know?" Nia asked again.

"The library at Hogwarts has relevant records, and the three schools have always had a good relationship," Albert revealed. "It is said that they even hold joint competitions every few years."

"Then why didn't we encounter anything related to magic in France?" Nia asked in frustration.

"Because the lives of ordinary people and wizards have no intersection, so naturally, we won't come into contact with it. Alright, I'm done," Albert suddenly stood up and said, "I'll go get some juice for you."

"Magical schools?" The young couple glanced over at Albert with a peculiar expression.

"Albert likes to read," Daisy explained casually.

"I'm planning to write a book," Albert smiled and said to the young couple, "a novel related to magic."

The young couple looked at Albert in surprise. They didn't expect this child, who was less than twelve years old, to already be planning to write a book?

"We've always been supportive of him in this regard," Herbert cleared his throat, "just like how we support him in learning French. Albert has never let us down, he has always been the best."

When it came to talking about his son, Herbert didn't hesitate to praise him. He even planned to let Albert say a few words in French for everyone to hear.

Albert resisted the urge to cover his face with his hand and found an excuse to leave.

"Why don't you continue sunbathing?" Albert looked at Nia, who was standing up, and handed her the juice, asking.

"This time, let me apply sunscreen for you," Nia suddenly said.

"No need, I can do it myself," Albert shook his head, refusing. Just as he was about to apply sunscreen to himself, a slightly familiar voice sounded in his ear.

"Little handsome boy, do you want us to help you apply sunscreen?"

A few young women in swimsuits passed by with surfboards, smiling and greeting Albert.

"No, thank you," Albert politely declined. "Let's surf together another time."

"Oh my, how shy," the women in swimsuits laughed and left.

"Albert's French is getting better and better!" Herbert said to the young husband, "When we first arrived in France, his tone was a bit stiff."

The young couple, who had been skeptical at first, now truly believed it. They were envious of Herbert having a talented son.

Nia watched the backs of the women in swimsuits as they walked away and asked cautiously, "Who are they?"

"They're friends I met while surfing."

"Oh, so you like that type?" Nia asked.

"Alright, stop fooling around and lie down to sunbathe," Albert said, changing the subject.

"I want to apply sunscreen for you," Nia insisted.

"Okay, okay," Albert reluctantly agreed.

In reality, Nia had no experience applying sunscreen. In the end, with Daisy's guidance, she reapplied sunscreen for Albert.

Dinner was always something to look forward to. French cuisine was indeed tastier than British cuisine, which was a unanimous agreement in the Anderson family.

"What about Dad?"

Albert's gaze shifted from the French fish soup that the waiter had brought. It was rare for Herbert to miss dinner.

"He went to book tickets for the opera house," Daisy explained. "He should be back soon. Let's eat first if you're hungry."

"Opera house? Which opera house?" Albert felt like he wouldn't appreciate such a high-end thing.

"The Palais Garnier."

"Tickets there aren't cheap," Albert frowned.

As the second-largest opera house in France, naturally the tickets weren't cheap.

"Herbert said that since we're in France, we shouldn't miss the opera," Daisy comforted. "Besides, our budget is still sufficient. This vacation turned out to be cheaper than we imagined."

"When is it?" Albert asked again.

"Just before we leave, right after watching the opera, we'll take the plane back home," Daisy said with a smile. "Does Nia like opera?"

"I don't know, I've never seen one," Nia shook her head. "Are operas interesting?"

"I can't really appreciate this kind of art. How about we change it to going to the cinema to watch a movie?" Albert suggested.

"I'm afraid not," Herbert replied.

"You've already bought the tickets?" Albert asked incredulously.

We made reservations. Since we're in France, how can we miss the opera?" Herbert smiled and said, "I think you'll like it."

"As long as you're happy," Albert said with a somewhat speechless expression, turning his head away. He didn't intend to dwell on this issue any longer.
