France

My parents and their friends from Alberta, Canada --- Ray and Gail Cook, in front of their little suite next to my Grandma's house. This house is where my Grandmother was raised...!!

French Bakery !!!

The seashore where my Mom grew up

Typical fisheries
Guérande - an old medieval city close to my Grandma's




La Côte Sauvage   ---  The "Wild" Coast

My first "apéro" with my family. An "Apéro" is taken before dinner, it's snacks and drinks.
I'm hugging my Dad. And my Mother and Grandmother are the first two ladies on the right.

They still use this "grass" for the roof...
