Joyeux Noël et Bonne Année!

I have met so many delightful people here – Joëlle Vouaux is one of them, and she invited me to a special lunch at her home in December. Her home is right above Place Carnot, where part of our Christmas market lives, so in addition to a wonderful lunch, I was treated to a wonderful view.

A gorgeous autumn bike ride along the River Aude to our fabulous area flea market.

We arrived in Carcassonne Sunday, July 29 – here are just a few photos of this beautiful city. 

I’m sure we’ll have some fun stories about life in France, and we’re looking forward to sharing them here.
