First day

Jetlag is strong !!

We need to move 

not to fall asleep !!

We went to a Wonderfull place with Baba.

We took the funicular and visited 

a temple hiding in the forest...

Baba taught tai chi to Amané !

 

Japan !!

Amané is as tall as Baba !!!

Mushrooms

Because it's already hot

there are plenty of

delicious mushrooms

in the forest !

Didi took us 

and we could find some !!!

 

Gérard and Josiane

Gérard and Josiane

came to Didi and Dada's house

to say hello to Grammy !!

 

At Grammy's place

With Didi and Amané 

we moved all the stuff

we could..

In the evening,

we ate a barbecue at Didi and Dada's house !

 

Grammy

Almost every day we go to see Grammy 

at Sabine's or at Dada's, 

to try to change her mind.

We have planned to move his house 

as much as possible, 

so that the workers 

can come and fix everything quickly.

 

Last ping pong training

It was the last ping-pong

 practice at the club for Amané.

We took the opportunity

 to say bye bye to Noam, 9, 

who will join the "espoir pole".

Good luck Noam!!!

 

Good bye Didier

We attended Didier's retirement party 

with about thirty people.

On the menu there was 

a spit-roasted wild boar!

But on returning home, bad surprise: 

our house got robbed.......

 

99 years old

On the night of his 99th birthday, 

Grammy saw his house destroyed by a hailstorm.

Sabine and Roger went in the night to look for her.

She had mopped her floor in the dark.

They caught her to their house.

All the little city of Ribérac is damaged.

Claire and Sabine are already calling the insurance 

and the artisans who can help.

I think Grammy doesn't realize yet,

how big are the damages.

We went there with Didi, Dada, 

Yuta and Amané

to put some tarpaulin

on the furnitures.

 

Honoured

Today in her junior high school,

 Amané received a lot of awards:

-first of the class,

-first in the ping-pong competition,

-first of college and department in English

-first in the competition about nature.

The junior high offered her many gifts, 

she went on the stage

 and she was applauded by all the people of her junior high !

Bravo Doudou, tu le mérites !!!!

 

Big Challenge

Amané get the first place of the department

for the concourse Big Challenge in English !!

Bravo Doudou !!!

 

Mamie de la forêt's house

 We went to Mamie de la Forêt's house.

Amané found some old books

and wanted to keep them all...!

We went to the Moulin,

in order Nadine could tell

if those books were sane.

They were all ok !!

I also took a little bench.
