The Trip Home

We took the train from Lyon to Paris in the morning.  Croissants in the train station are way too buttery.

 

Our Icelandair plane stopped in Iceland.  This was the airport.

 

 

We were greeted with a very artistic picture - notice the French moustaches on each of us?

 

And here's most of the stuff we brought back:  mostly wines from the regions we went to, herbs from Provence, a box of sea salt from the Camargue, foie gras from the Dordogne region, balsamic vinegar flavored with truffles, and a French chutney.  Mmmm!!!  If you've followed our vacation this far, thanks!  Email us and we'll invite you over for dinner.  Hopefully by now, I will have learned how to make cassoulet, that great dish with white beans and duck sausage!
