Hey everbody. Well we have finaly made it to Pissos, a little hamlet in Bordeaux. Just getting here was an adventure in itself, but God is good and we arrived safely at arond 5pm last night (7th). We are all in good health, which is not something to be taken for granted, many people working in the airports are wearing breathing masks, so the swine flue is a big issue. It is early days yet, but so far we are loving France, everthing is similar, yet also wierdly different, at the same time. It had never occured to me that the Frenchcomputer keyboard would be completly different to ours; so here I sit slowly typing on two fingers... The house is everthing we had hoped for, a converted barn, decorated with the simple elegance the French are famous for. Anyway, here are some photos and we will try to post a video once we figure out how...Love to all,

Pete & Deb.

  2. NO WAY! (peter here) Its surprisingly difficult getting used to driving on the RHS. I know you and Phill experienced it when you were here. People talk about the motorways fearfully, but I have found them to be easier than the little side streets and car parks, where all my maneuvering instincts are wrong!
