A foggy morning


We had a quiet day today in the Alps. The weather was wet and foggy this morning. Late this afternoon it is cool and sunny around Anne and Gilles home. We went to Crolles to shop at the greenhouse and then the Casino grocery store. We bought lamb rib chops to fix for dinner and Mark made a Tres Leches cake this afternoon. Anne and I both decided to read this afternoon which is code for taking a good long nap. I have been reading Malcolm Gladwell's book What the Dog Saw. This is a collection of articles he wrote for the New Yorker. We made our plans for visiting Berengere in Copenhagen. We leave on Wednesday arriving in the evening. We will attend a piano concert on Thursday evening and will be staying at the French embassy where Berengere lives. We are hoping to kayak on the weekend. Berengere said the weather could be sunny to raining so we will pack for all conditions. We will leave most of our things in Lyon and take a small backpack on the plane. This will help us get into Copenhagen quickly. We will stay in Lyon when we return on Wednesday and Thursday, then back to the states on Friday.

So what have you two guys done, gone and found a place even prettier than here? Now you won't want to come back here, as it won't be spectacular enough for you. But we do have mountains and a shitload of greenhouses. I hope you continue to have a great time, in Copenhagen and Lyon. Viny says bon jour.

Larry and Viny, do not worry, we think where you live is beautiful. Especially since you live there. We had a great day climbing
