We were staying in an old house up a hillside and the people in the village asked us to spend the day with them watching the Tour de France as it passed near the village, It was one of the most exciting and special days I can remember. In the evening the villagers had a party and built a massive bonfire and we all sat round drinking wine and my French got worse and worse!!!<BR/>Congrats on your blogging year and your lovely, lovely blog Steph<BR/>KimxRagged Roseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08339985100168927169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8308715619105248833.post-50775989298599392352008-07-11T21:28:00.000+01:002008-07-11T21:28:00.000+01:00Steh, Did you notce on a previous post I commented...Steh, Did you notce on a previous post I commented that youw ere a recipient of the Arte y Pico award?
