Big wave day in Vancouver

Mac gets a lift out to the beach. Sav catches a lift back.

I'm on the bike with Mac Ride and a scooter.

Lovely sun.

 The boy feigns being knacked!

Before & After

How did the Howard genes get so severely trumped?

Paris-- La Fin

A lovely reunion with Marie. Some chuckles at les J de Lux post the Musee d'Orsay where I prevented an international incident by stopping Marie from stroking les Rodins.  

 Plenty of time on les velib'

She is ridiculous, as ever, chez le Gaultier exhibit at the Grand Palais

Eiffel Tower...take that for new age arty, Gualtier!

 And then there were 3! Welcome to Paris, Pamela! First night chez le place des Vosges. Very chichi.

 

And we're off-- along la Seine on our bikes and to the Louvre.

 Hosted by the lovely Sandrine, Merci Sandrine!

Ooh la la. Posh cocktails abound.

 A wee bit of night life! Yup, up past 12 before heading home to the gorgeous Team Roberts. SuperDad and SuperNana did a cracking job with the troops while I was away.

Essert-Romand, France with MAD

What a wonderful stay in Essert-Romand, Les Alpes. Biking, endo-ing, hiking, beveraging, tartifletting and loads of catching up on Ecosse, Scottish Swimming, family stuff, and a fair amount of UBC therapy chat too.
Just wonderful.

 

Lovely tartiflette, but shy of Nonna's recipe, to be sure!

 

Our humble chalet! A beautiful home courtesy of the amazing C&N.
