They all made our trip wonderful! They are, each and every one, interesting people, going places, and doing things, and making their way in a new world that each has created! You, who are reading this at home in California, would like each and every one of them! We hope you all get to meet each one! They are invited to visit, and swap houses, and just stay in touch in every way possible! Here are some pictures from the party that we threw at the end of our visit in the house in Saint Quentin la Poterie.
Sorry! I don't have pictures of all the couples. I still wanted to share these pictures with you....there is Martin and Angela are retired British couple who had worked at a University. Martin hand makes jewelry and sculpture, and Angela hand makes books.... Diaries, and beautifully crafted books!
Ernie and Kate from Scotland.... Kate, sweet and lovely, and Ernie kept the French class laughing and light!!! Brian, pictured with Bruce, is Irish, as is his wife, Astrid...he plays the bag pipes....Collin and Claire...British friends, of whom, I am afraid to say, I don't have a picture...We had a wonderful dinner at their home, and I learned how to make summer pudding!...Mâire and Roger, a Scottish couple who go back and forth between the home in Scotland, and Uzes...and their lovely daughter, Ellen. They entertained us for drinks one night...we are hoping to exchange houses with them in the near future!...Not from our French class, but still wonderful and interesting are: Pam and Dan and Bill and Giselle. We enjoyed every minute of every experience with each of them! Thank YOU!
