Second destination

Hello Friends !

We arrived our destination. In this part of France you can have all the type of weather in one day!

We began with a little rain then wind, sun and quite warm and now cloudy and quite windy!

I am sitting outside on our terrace with a coffee and a little pastry 🥮 

The staff here is very welcoming and the restaurant being full tonight they made another reservation ina fish restaurant just beside the hotel.

They can book everything for you! How nice and helpful.

We will try to get a boat to go the Anglo Normand island of Guernesey.

This is the hotel very confortable

After our son’s month holiday here I was very tired, in fact with my son we had epiglottis ( your

Throat swells and you can’t breathe) he started to have a bad throat and then it was my turn we avoided hospital but my husband gave us strong cortisone and cortisone in aerosol. I had fever and was really feeling bad. Unfortunately when you take the plane there maybe viruses and then he went to Disney Paris for three days with people from all over the world… it is usually a winter illness but you meet different travellers coming from the south hemisphere were it’s winter. So I was not at my best! My son being younger he Recovered  better than me!  In fact I was exhausted! I kept going it was in the middle of their stay fortunately.

The two first weeks the parents were on  telework having calls, so grandma was busy with William doing potty training! 😂 running to the bathroom

Baking waffles  and scones…

Then we had an internet problem in the village it took three days to fix it and they were  teleworking! And no cartoons for the boys no TV!

It was the start!

Last year Maxime broke his wrist and William swallowed a wasp!🐝 

I just begin to feel better just before going on holiday.  This was this year’s adventures ! 😂 

The History of a photo.

Hello friends!

When we did our road trip in the Netherlands some years ago, three years of I remember time flies so quickly!

We went to frieseland up north east of the country.

A beautiful agricultural place and very nice farms and landscapes.i was looking at my photos and reminded me of that place a beautiful place but a sad history!

We slept in a B&B which was part of a synagogue. They did a nice place for tourists 

But what I did not know is that in August 1942 the entire population of the Dutch province of Goringue  or Groningen in Dutch. was rounded up and deported by the occupying forces to Auschwitz Birkenau 2550 inhabitants of the province only 10 survived.

And we were sleeping in the classroom.

The picture of the school children all deported was in the room and the place was nice but I couldn’t sleep thinking of those children.

I just reminded me of this photo that disturbed me a lot because I did not know the history of the province of Groningen.

History is part of the travels!

The small houses above the canal were the kitchen

It’s nice to see some little flowers that resisted 5 or 6 heatwaves! The temperature is going down and rain waters the garden fortunately!

Our daughter is going cycling on her own again to Belgium this time. She takes the train with her bike to Bruxelles and then cycle I don’t like to know her alone on her bike! But…
