Wednesday

We went down today to take some stuff to the Parchemin..and then to the Quillan marche for the last time this trip...had frites at Angela's..chatted with"the boys" and came on home to finish up.
The city workers came around today to pick up unwanted Large items...we had a stove and some stuff from the sheds that Michael has been tearing out. We had been unable to get the large oil tank up the stairs, but when Sissy heard the men outside she raced up the steps and asked them if they could come down to look..which they did...and were glad to help.
That is something that is different here, if you have things to go to the dump AKA Dechettrie..call the mayor and it is a done deal...also  you can offer any city worker a beer or wine and it is well recieved!!
The trick or treaters came on Halloween..very cute..about a dozen of them of all ages plus one mom..They all used their best English...

 the hill above the house..after the fire     Couisa is the town in the distance..A town along the Med.. just below Perpignan...on the way to Barcelona...the long way!!!yea!!!

A hotel in Funchal Portugal


It has been rainy/cloudy here for the last few days..Gone are the sunny warm days..
though tonight Michael and I took a long walk down the Antugnac road and it was warm enough to get a little sweaty in my sweater...I hope that tomorrow will be warm as they have been saying all week would be.. we will be saying so long to our friends here and getting ready to go early on Friday.  Paulo and Didier will come for us at 9 o'clock and it will take a while to load the car then on to Barcelona..


At the fete...toooo hot around 105 degrees...everyone collected bottles "splashed " the crowd!!




Paris   what can I say....I loved it..
..
It has been great, I hope that all of you can come for a visit , take a good long time  there is soooo much to see and do.. see you soon
