... up and I unloaded my luggage. I showered and changed and had a brief rest until just after noon when it was time for lunch: rice and beans, Creole-style chicken, salad and several French cheeses (for my benefit – Reunionais don’t usually eat much cheese) and a bottle of Chateauneuf du Pape, which we sipped sparingly. This was followed by a fruit cocktail for dessert and coffee. We talked about many things over lunch: the state of the Church and it’s work ...

... the curtain - listen to the great and powerful OZ! But I digress; back to Saint Denis. The sun came out fully and it became very hot. We had a cold dodo beer in the garden café. The local beer is actually called Bourbon. That's the brand name, taken from the royal family of France: the Bourbons - you may not have known that was Louis XIV last name! The island of Reunion was also named after the Bourbons for a while. All ...

"Mon île" - Jacqueline Farreyrol Mon île, Tu n'es pas comme les autres îles, Tu ne viens pas d'une famille d'îles, Aux plages de palmiers. Pas de filles aux colliers de fleurs, Pour touristes en peine de coeur, A l'ombre de tes cocotiers. Mon île, Tu n'es pas la carte postale, Pour ses vacances idéales, Près des lagons aux sables d'or. Tu as choisi comme ceinture ...

" Parler tout bas" - Alizée Les jours de pluie Mes jouets sont vivants Les grands ont des griffes Comme des bouts de ciment Comment leur dire Quand on a que seize ans Le lit qu'on défait, n'a plus Le goût du zan A quoi bon Les vies chiffons Les mots d'amour Qui sont trop courts, Moi, j'rêve ...

... Hit me baby one more time Oh baby, baby The reason I breathe is you Boy you got me blinded Oh pretty baby There's nothing that I wouldn't do It's not the way I planned it Show me how you want it to be Tell me baby 'cause I need to know now, oh because Chorus: My loneliness is killing me I must confess I still believe When I'm not with you I lose my mind Give me a sign Hit me baby ...

After 30 minutes of the staff setting up everybody's cameras it was time for the club to finish for the day and we were given a photographic assignment to carry out over the next week, print out the results and bring it to the next session on the 6th. If it hadn't been for another likeminded sole I think ...

Le (très bon) prétexte de notre venue à la Réunion: célébrer notre mariage avec tous les amis et ceux de la famille qui n'ont malheureusement pas pu se joindre à nous le 15 Septembre pour la cérémonie officielle à Budapest. Notons au passage que c'est l'occasion rêvée de présenter les parents de Klàra à l'ensemble de la (large) famille. Après tout, il y a 55 personnes présentes. La quasi-totalité des ...

... of 9 days at E26 per day, plus airport drop-off for E12, paid with E250 in TC's, change in cash. Car is indeed new, so, with the manager holding up traffic, make a nervous start. Couple of stalls in the first 100 metres because the gear is sprung to second, not first. Use wipers instead of blinkers, a usual with a LH drive hire car, but fluke the right side for filling at the Esso just down the road. Tank is only 2 notches full, take it up to ...
