Looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday!<br /><br />L&S, I've just read your blog and learned that you got home in one piece, except for the foie gras. We'll be toasting at your health on Wednesday at S&S's BBQ party. Hope the day will remain dry, although I've heard that Susan has a plan B, just in case!<br /><br />Anne, Thank you. Diane and I have become blog friends a couple of months ago and we'll be meeting for the first time next Wednesday in France. Wish you could be there too!<br /><br />Kathie, When the French try to imitate the Belgian accent, they're always 'overdoing' it. I bet you would be just great at it!<br /><br />Louise, Villandry is awesome ... Just hope it doesn't rain when we are there. I don't care much for the castle, and especially not that awful gallery with all the 'morbid' paintings. The gardens are fabulous though.<br /><br />Nadege, Lovely to read you. The weather is my main concern right now. That and the fact that my friends will think that I'm a control freak :)!<br /><br />Sheila, Thank you. It is a nice photo but I hope that soon I'll have many more photos of all these lovely spots in the Loire Valley to use as headers.<br /><br />Diane, So I'm I. I'm so greatful to S&S for organizing Wednesday's party. See you then!<br /><br />Veronica, Thanks! I intend to shoot a lot of photos. Mats will probably declare me crazy, like he did last year in Deal/Charing! :)ladybirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05690656561242165157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7297241541767981823.post-2105753594366808242012-06-01T09:29:14.279+02:002012-06-01T09:29:14.279+02:00Hoping you have a great time in the Loire, which I...Hoping you have a great time in the Loire, which I'm sure you will.

You can't believe how cold it gets in Melbourne in the depths of winter. We sometimes get zero celsius.

Hope you managed to get some extra vacation so you can rest from your vacation.<br /><br />It seems it’s going to be quite a party at S&S’s on June 6th. Can’t wait to meet or see all these people whose comments I have been reading over the years on various blogs.chmnoreply@blogger.com
