Bormes les Minosas

The girls had a great time at their grandparents in Provence over the school break.

When we picked them up, we made a short trip to Bormes les Minosas;

We are back in France, not on vacation this time, hence the 4 month silence here.

Anyways, long story short, after a rather chaotic search for nannies, Lucie will be admitted in a daycare (crèche) next month. She had a visit with the daycare doctor today:

- (Dr Julie) Does Lucie eat everything, especially iron rich food? Like meat, greens, lentils?
- (Me) Yes, she does eat pretty much everything
- (Lucie, whispering in my ear) ...and chocolate!

Premiere lecon d'equitation pour Alice; Lucie n'a pas voulu tenter...mais elle en "parle" encore
Alice's first horseback riding lesson - She loved it! Lucie did not feel like trying ponies, but was very impressed by her big sister's performance.



Galena is a pretty town west of Chicago, close to Iowa
