Countdown 2011

I usually do not let them begin the countdown until after January 1.  But this year a couple of the girlies started it without asking and how could I possibly erase this and tell them no?  Pas possible!

So, we have started dreaming of the Champs-Élysées

making crêpes with Chef Érick

steak-frites

Galeries Lafayette

La Tour Eiffel

Impressionist art at Musée d'Orsay

baguettes

D-Day beaches and the American Cemetery

escargots

Auvers-sur-Oise

Vincent Van Gogh

the TGV to Avignon

les arènes in Nîmes

and Arles

the Saturday market in Arles

the Pont du Gard

un sandwich au jambon

and Nice...

just to mention a few of the highlights of our trip.

Ahhhh...

Bon appétit, la France!
