Destination France...

10.17.2013 •
France and French flags

France calls one of her sons home again... and so my husband, along with me and our two boys, will be heading across the Atlantic in a few days for a little visit. France is not only my husband's motherland but also home to his aging parents, affectionate childhood friends and fond faraway memories... each return and departure is always bittersweet.

We'll be doing a lot of driving on our trip. Main stops include Orléans, known for Jeanne d'Arc's triumphant victory lifting the British siege over the city; Gers, a region in Southwest France famed for its foie gras; and of course Paris. I'll be posting photos on Instagram if you'd like to follow along... à bientôt (see you soon)...

    Safe, speedy travels Catherine! Love this image. Being with a British expat, I can empathize with the situation your family and husband must face with each trip to Europe (Mr. L also left behind family members and friends, each trip is also bittersweet).
