Memories 97 to 99

#97 (2/21/13)
In Manosque, France, we'd go for walks to a chapel at the top of a hill, it was a nice, long walk. We could come back down a different way we came up. On the way, there were walnut trees, cherry trees and blackberry bushes. We'd have our snacks on the way from mother nature. This used to be our Sunday walk on sunny days.

She hated cold water. She windsurfed a bit, but hated the thought of falling in. And forget just going swimming. She enjoyed the warm ocean in Florida. As long as it was almost as warm as bath water.

Our first time in the US, in San Francisco, we ordered French Toast thinking this had to be bread with butter and jam, like what we call 'tartines'; we were hoping for some familiarity. What a disappointement that was! Of course, it wasn't bad, but when not what we expected!

A Manosque, on avait notre promenade du dimanche: on allait jusuq'a la Chapelle Toutes Aures, c'etait une longue et belle balade. On pouvait faire tout un circuit. Sur le chemin, il y avait des noyers, des cerisiers et des muriers, on faisait notre gouter.

Elle detestait l'eau froide. Elle avait fait de la planche a voile, mais n'aimait pas l'idee de tomber a l'eau. Elle n'aimait pas non plus aller se baigner. En Floride, l'ocean chaud lui convenait; du moment que c'etait a la temperature d'un bain!

Notre premiere fois aux Etats-Unis, a San Francisco, on avait commande des "french toasts" en pensant que c'etait des bonnes tartines, mais en fait c'etait du pain perdu a l'americaine, avec de la cannelle et beaucoup de beurre. On avait bien ete decues!
