Arcantis Hotel Paris Nice Isere

... an unforgettable experience; and unforgettable wine, which we'll be saving a bottle of for our 10th anniversary... when it will be at its prime.

The next day we visited the St. Joseph region of the Rhone; further north. Again, amazing wine and amazing people. You're supposed to call ahead to make an appointment with the smaller chateaus; but since we don't have a phone, our strategy was to drive down the road and pull over wherever we ...

A la truelle et au marteau, Henri-Jean n'a pas rechign ...

... just give her a E50 note and hope for some change! The same with the butcher - we left yesterday with a piece of beef which cost the same as a small African Nation would have on the blackmarket - needless to say that the children have now been quietly prepped that we dont walk into a shop BEFORE we have looked into the windows first and decided what we want so we can avoid ...

I have just spent the quietest weeks of my life. I've stayed at my parents' house the entire month. I got eye surgery twice (left eye then right eye 2 weeks later) and could not go outside for a little while (too bright).
Some friends and cousins stopped by to visit though and my parents hosted two kids from "Les Petits Chanteurs a la Croix de Bois" two days after I arrived in Lyon.

... was time for us to get a drink. We finally found a cafe, called "Chappelle Cafe", pretty chill. We got a couple of drinks and relax. We eventually started to get hungry. We asked the bartender where the cool restaurants were. We were hoping to find a good restaurant, with no reservation for that special night, New Year's Eve.

We actually got really lucky because we walked randomly into a great typical restaurant of Lyon: "un bouchon lyonnais", located in a tiny alley ...

I spent 5 days in Lyon, France where I saw the RHCP play. It was my first real concert I've been to. There was the Mathew Good Band concert in Victoria but that was weak. The RHCP put on a good show.
