Thanks for the card showing where one of our famous queens came from- she certainly changed the English court. I have never had or heard of walnut wine, is it a speciality of the region ? You certainly had the best weather for the visit didn't you or was it hot and humid like it was here ? BTW you are still an ace photographer !

Welcome back, Michel!!! It appears that you both had a wonderful time. So many beautiful things to see. The pictures you took of Janine are beautiful-but walnut wine. ?? :)
Glad you got some sunny weather during your vacation, all it has done here so far this year is rain. I am worried for my garden. Anyways, it is good to see you back!
