Dear Reader,
Please forgive the lack of posts in the last few days, but we did have some rather severe thunderstorms here in the hills of the Auvergne, which knocked out our internet service. In addition, we had visitors staying with us, plus took time off to visit with both old and new friends.
One of those visits was to my friend Violaine, who is lucky enough to live in what must be one of France's most romantic little city's, called le Puy-En-Velay. Violaine and I went to Junior High School together. I tried to catch up with her in Le Puy last year, but we missed each other.
We were more organized this time around. We had a lovely afternoon visiting the famous cathedral with its famous black Madonna, walked around the charming cobble-stoned streets and ate lunch in one of the cafés on the main squares.
Le Puy is not only an important medieval Christian site, but is also one of the starting points of the pilgrimige to Santiago De Compostela in Spain.
Merci, Violaine, pour une journée extra. Á l'année prochaine, mon amie.

I was very glad to see you again with your family. Le Puy is a very beautiful old city, especially when it is sunny. My friend, it is wonderful our friendship lasts still after all these years.
I will send news after my trip in Spain.
Bises à tous
Violaine
