Better than we dreamed

It turns out that getting internet connection at our place was a challenge, so now we're paying dearly by the minute. I'll have to figure out a way to write the blog offline and then download it. Until then, in brief:

Our town, Dinan, when we finally found it, was one of the most beautiful sights I've ever seen. Driving through the countryside over the stone bridge to the brick buildings overlooking the river. Just enchanting.

Our place: adorable, spacious, perfectly situated. Wonderful spirit.

Us: tired, but so excited and thrilled.

The people here: warm, lively, everyone looks you in the eye and smiles.

My new phone number: 06 70 00 39 57

Photos: forthcoming.

A la prochaine!

  2. Hi Lady Marabel. I am glad things are settling down.

    Another option for you is to write your post in notepad or word, then connect to internet and simply copy/paste the content of the post.

    Say Hi to Kevin and the girls from Mike.

    A la prochaine! Viva la France!

  3. Hi LM, I was looking at Dinan in Google Maps using the Street View mode. (http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=Dinan%20france&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=il)
