Today’s Photos
Google Map of Cordes-sur-Ciel
8:00 am today – getting better! The day started well, the kids got up and sat down to do their schoolwork on their own. Hurray for Pavlov’s conditioning theory! Then, another great thing happened. IBM called and came within the hour. We actually finished our morning tasks/duties and were out the door by 11:00am (1100 hours). Our destination… The fortified town of Cordes Sur Ciel.
It took approx 45 minutes to get there through a lot of open country and small, crumbling towns. The weather this morning was overcast with bouts of rain.
Hopefully the photos will give you an indication of how interesting this place is….our whole family really enjoyed it.
Francois has a bigger grin on his face today. I bet IBM helped it 😉

Today’s pictures from Cordes-sul-Ciel are fantastic. I like the photo of the house with flower pots. The little town seems to be very preserved. Everything seems intact.

Emma wanted me to take the photo of the flower pots because she wanted her friends to see them. 🙂 This town was very cool indeed.

Hey Olga,
great to have you here! A big hi to the family from us. I was thinking of Uncle Pepe yesterday evening when I had a glass of Armagnac. The French call it ‘eau de vie’ which means ‘water of life’.

OH No poor Emma. Hopefully, she will get better soon.
Everyone sends their hugs and kisses to everybody. Jacob noticed that Liam “doesn’t have any teeth.” We all laughed, and said his will be fallling out soon too. So he went and checked in the mirror. 🙂
Take care, don’t drink too much wine. You don’t want to get too spoiled out there.
Tootles,
Olgs
