pets: 4693 sticks: folly's travels: france (2)
| from toulouse we travelled on to grasse, which was
supposed to take us something like seven hours but which took more
than ten because i thought it funny to make a small detour to see
st. tropez and ste. maxime on the way which caused us to sit in unbeleavably
heavy traffic jams and when we finally got to grasse i could not find my uncle jan's house, this took us another hour or so, before we finally reached the quaint villa of oom jan, where folly wouldn't join me in the swimming pool so i made her sit on one of the benches that came from the garden of the big house where i grew up in wassenaar, benches that were divided over the uncles and my father |

(mont blanc) the lake, the city, the mountains, the forests of annecy a wonderful experience this whole trip - i am still thankful i could do this together with my folly |
