Summer 2008

Some photos in Altwiller with family...





After their gardening lesson, they were ready to go to Altwiller, to visit their great-grandparents and pursue their skills as farmers...





Milena doing a great job at teaching our children some gardening skills. I am glad someone in this family has the talent to do that!





Well, we have itchy feet, so it wasn't long before we took off again before the summer was over. So we headed to Alsace to my parent in law's house. Milena's sister was there with her boyfriend. We also went for a walk to the Fontaine Melanie, close to Saverne...





Both Paul and Sofía enjoyed and played a lot with Nikken and Anne Ro...





Paul was very impressed by the airplane's take off and flight, which he got to presence right on the first row's of the show!





In August we actually managed to stay home for a few days and we were graced with my bay brother and his girlfriend's visit to Grenoble. We took them to climb trees and also for a plane ride in the Alpes!
















And then to Pisa and Florence...






We then pursued our trip towards Cinqueterra, the almost mythical towns in the coast of Italy, you can only get to by train or walking!











After this stop at La Moutonne, we seeked our travels further south, stopping first in Nice, beautiful Nice!





We also got to celebrate Raphael's b-day!










This summer we also enjoyed of great mediterranean holidays. We started out in the south of France (La Moutonne), close to Hyères, where my parent in laws rendted a house...














We went to visit Jean François et Emmanuel at their place in the Alpes (Embrun). Jean François used to be my boss at SINCOR in Venezuela. We've stayed in touch ever since!
