Here are some places to find out more about where we've been and how helps us when we're gone!... 

Sue and Henry's Gites

In rural France one of the best bargains in accomodation are the thousands of small houses rented out by their owners. Called "gites", these are typically older cottages or barns that may or may not have been renovated and are equiped with few amenities. The best we've ever seen are owned by Sue and Henry Howitt and are located on the edge of the Morvan forest in Burgundy.

Hotel Renoir

A cheery place we found in Paris just off the Boulevard Montparnasse is the Hotel Renoir. Comfortable rooms in a good part of Paris, the staff was pleasant and helpful, and you are just around the way from the Montparnasse train station which has a direct bus to Charles De Gaule Airport. The exterio is unassuming, and you can miss it if you don't know where to look.

French Word-A-Day

A great site and a must for Francophiles who want to expand their vocabulary. The book is delightful!

Wilderness Newfoundland Adventures

If you haven't tried sea kayaking before this is the perfect place to learn all about it. The Cook family (to whom we are now related by marriage I think) runs the best known and most highly regarded sea kayaking operation in Newfoundland. They're also some damned nice people and their enthusiasm for their tours and their love of Newfoundland is incredibly contagious.

Molly's Pet Care.

When we travel Portia, our semi-Siamese, stays at home and Molly get to make frequent visits.
