... that flamingos were native to France, but they are! Brian thought they would have all migrated by now, but I was able to catch a glimpse of a few!

But finally we arrived. Taking the first side road we could that wasn’t waay out of the way we went directly to the water to sit ourselves down on the Med and have a picnic. Beautiful! And we had it all to ourselves with just a few locals going for their mid-day walk or run. Now ...

... BUT the info we got for the campsite was wrong and it was closed.. and the one next door too. So a rushed internet trip we found one, way out and got there just in time. France is full of red lights, roundabouts and pedestrian crossings!!!! Im SOOOOO over them all!!!!

Got to the campsite and there were no buses in town,. We were exhausted by then so fell into bed and decided to give up on that part of France and head to Lyon the next day...

... smelled and felt the saltwater air, and found a great place for dinner. We had a very nice and inexpensive dinner right along the ocean, which was our father’s day gift to Steve. Sandy and I had a plat du jour, which we have seen many times, but have not ordered, along with another good, cheap local wine. It is like the “specials” menu of the day, but you get your choice from the entrée (the ...

... on the Canal du Midi, are doing a great job of renovating an old 'maison de village’ there, and have bought a canal cruiser. Now that is a distinct possibility for a future visit huh?? J

So, between drives around the countryside, a couple of walks to take in the natural beauty (check out the flamingos!) and doing the markets, croissants and café au lait, it’s all pretty hard to take. I’d better stop rambling on and get back to it!! More in a week or so.

... unfinished), and next thing we know we are going over the bloody viaduct again. Thought we might be able to exit and go back again at the viewing point, but NO. So off we went to pay the toll going the other way then back again and paying the toll yet again to go the way we wanted. Leo's diversion to see the viaduct was starting to be expensive!!! Never mind, we found Sete, and Brigittes parents, were waiting for us. They live just up the ...

May 18th - Rest Day, Essaouira Essaouira a decent place to chill out for a bit, if it was not for this pan handler stalking us through the medina for 2 days. Usually the guys asking for money in Morocco genuinely need it... if you have a wretched leg, or are pushing one of your family in a wheelchair who isn't looking too rosy then by all means a couple of dinars find their way into your tin. But this guy is unique! Fully able gent with all senses functioning and well dressed to boot ...

Bonjour Mes Ami And, unfortunately, after 4 weeks in France thats still about the extent of my French! We are winding down in France and mentally preparing for another contenent; yikes! In many ways I'm very ready to come home. This has been wonderful and I am feeling very full and content. It seems almost like a disservice to this experience to be shifting gears to accommodate a whole new culture: However; the opportunity was a gift that presented when and how ...

... mi fece sentire l'odore della Guinness, il mio caffé fu sorseggiato sulle rive del Liffey, mi presentó amici di tutto il mondo. Dopo mi portó a Montpellier e li é stato bellissimo. Il mare, il caldo, cose bellissime peró poi ho cominciato ad annoiarmi. Si, faccio la caffettiera, é vero, peró commenti come: "Ah che bellu café" non mi bastavano piú. Avevo bisogno di viaggiare. Avevo visto qualcosa del mondo, peró volevo di piú. E sono scappata ...
