... they make is incredibly fruity and sweet with a hint of apricot. I am getting all this knowledge from Chris of course because although I managed to drink a little bit I was too busy concentrating on not making faces to decipher the flavors. I do admit though, it was the easiest wine to drink that I have ever tried and if there had been food accompanying it I may have done better. I’m trying here!

... venue was changed to France. This was a disappointment to Helen’s friends in Michigan, but an unexpected joy for Hervé’s friends in France. There is a saying in French that translates roughly as "the unhappiness of some makes for the happiness of others." So the congregation in Michigan held services in such a way that they wedding could be heard during the announcement period of services over their ...

... Baker. He was on his way back from Asia to his home in New York and had an hour’s layover in Atlanta. He wanted to know if I were in the States so we could talk on the phone and catch up on the news. It’s expensive to talk on cell phones internationally, so we deferred the pleasure of a conversation.

Tomorrow will be an exciting and busy day.

This morning I was up and out of the hotel just after sunup for the drive to Charles de Gaulle airport. I arrived with plenty of time, and filled the tank with diesel before turning the car in. The flight to Bordeaux left at 1:10 and arrived on time about 2:30. On our take-off route over Paris, we again had a pretty clear view of the city. The Eiffel Tower is the easiest landmark to ...

The next day we caught a train to St Emilion to check out the beautiful little village.

On our last day we did a wine tour of Medoc ...

... on mange!! On a jaser tout le monde autour du feu on a faite connaisance, on a compter des histoire assez spécial et bizzare, qui maintenant sont des jokes qui ont resté entre nous (des "insides" dans le fond). Le monde sont vraiment cool, chuis tomber sur une bonne gang. Mais bon jva pas vous faire un portrait de chaque je finirais jamais. En tk, ya au moins une bonne dizaine si c'est pas une quinzaine de ...

We visited the Dune du Pyla today, a 100m high natural sand dune on the south edge of Archachon.
There is a large car park at the base and, conveniently, steps up the side for those in high heels or carrying dogs (we saw both)

Seriously, how did that conversation go this morning?:
"Honey, were visiting a large sand dune, are you ...
