Une Promenade Formidable!!

Dear Friends,

Today we went for another two hour walk with Jean-Paul, speaking French, as we went.  Much of the discussion involved politics as we have discovered that while Jean-Paul voted for President H.W. Bush, he now thinks that Senator Warren is great.  We have much in common.

We walked part way out Cap Ferrat and then cut across the peninsula and back to Beaulieu.  Along the way we came upon the house of David Niven.  Here is a photo of a sign to give you a sense of where you are and which way to go along this beautiful walking path.


Here we are leaving Jean-Paul to visit our good friend David.

And here is Jane with Jean-Paul.

After our walk today, we went shopping for dinner.  First we went to the butcher shop and got some chicken breasts.  Then we went to the vegetable man who puts his vegetables out on a square.  We got endive, mushrooms, red pepper and potatoes.  Finally we went to the delicatessen for an apple tart.  I had already purchased a baguette this morning from the bakery.  Of course we conducted all this business en français.

We are now off to a soirée to meet the other clients of our landlord, Shelley.

Bonne Journée.

Thanks for reading and please comment,

  2. Enjoy your promenades in your light-weight jackets! Ah. Are we jealous? -- mais oui, certainment, here the windchill is so low that schools are cancelled for tomorrow. Frightfully cold! Your pictures and words are balm for us. Keep posting the seashore by sunlight! xoJean
