What’s going on here?

Hello friends!

Just to let you know how it is here.

It is not so hot but we don’t have any rain and we have to water the garden a lot.

The new robot is working only to discover the garden I did not put it to cut anything.

It’s a new technology which use cameras, satellite and IA so he is discovering we’re he will have to work.

Where is the grass???

I began to prepare our grandchildren’s little garden

They like to water the plants!

Our children and grandchildren should leave Dubaï tomorrow ( I hope they will get a plane?) ✈️ and then if yes they’re going to Paris Disney for 3 days direct from the airport and then head to Normandie ! Hope all goes well!

I have been busy preparing things and preparing winter while others are on holidays. Got oil for the boiler, gaz, wood for the stove fireplace… so I am ready!

Our son’s family will be here for a month and after grandpa and grandma are going on holiday!

So I’ll be busy and I’ll try to post during this holidays! See you soon, enjoy your Summer!

( we are having big fires here in France )

A fire in Rouen.

On our Bastille day some of our beautiful old Normand houses caught fire! There are quite a lot of them in the centre of the city. So old buildings it’s sad to have lost them people have been very scary they were watching the football match when they smelled smoke, 60 firemen stayed 5 hours to extinguish the fire.

Now, I said I would do a blog pause to prepare our son and family arrival for their holidays and having medical appointments.

I will come and publish from time to time.

A fourth strong heat wave is arriving soon, we will have only a few days to breathe before the heat is back!

So I hope you’ll enjoy your summer and don’t have too much heat. For my part I am waiting impatiently for Fall and winter! Too much heat for me!

See you soon.
