Cruising from Viviers to Tournon
... talking and laughing as we sailed toward Touron. Then we had a cooking demonstration by our chef. We learned how to make Crepes Suzette. Good and delicious fun. A tour of the kitchen followed. It is amazing that the get all of that wonderful food out of such a small kitchen. A French lesson followed to prepare us for our home hosted dinner in Touron tonight. All 12 of us are going to the same home. The family will never be the same after our ...

What an experience - Tour de France
... car'. All up it seemed to go for about an hour. I had just said to Sandy that they will need a clean up crew tomorrow picking up the leftover junk, then i saw people crawling under cars, looking in the bush...for one more piece of useless junk.
