Wonderful, relaxing vacation!......in the South of France and Spain

What a wonderful new, exciting area this Pyrénées-Orientales and Languedoc-Roussillon is!  And we keep saying "what beautiful weather we are having"  Here are some quick photos of our travels so far:

Ile d'Oleron - visit with Pilla and her former coworker Anna....and Klaus and Aston:

Calla and Tom just left for the airport in Bordeaux....seems we did too much again as we always do and Calla sprained her ankle in Ceret (hilly, mountain town with lots of drainage ditches) and we spent 3 hours in a clinic getting x-rays and seeing the doctor.  She is fine and no broken bones, just crutches and a brace for 3 weeks....maybe her trip home will be smoother as mine was with my broken femur.....breeze through customs and take the back halls of the airport....in a wheelchair!  Also, as soon as we arrived in the hotel in La Teste de Buch, I came down with violent vomiting and diarrhea as the result of eating too much spicy and unusual food!  So we hope our trip home tomorrow will be uneventful and that my stomach will settle down!  Next time we'll do less and relax more!  Ha!

Also, please pray for the government to open as Calla is furloughed and as a single person, it is harder!
