Our visits to France have become more frequent since
our daughter Erica, her husband Andrew Auerbach and their two young
boys, Atticus and Roman, moved to Paris in the fall of 2007. Besides spending time with the
family, we have taken a few excursions to places nearby, including
Limoux France and Barcelona and Catalonia
Spain Intro in 2012.

In October 2016, we explored Strasbourg and the Alsace Wine
Region. Following that trip, we took the boys to
Amsterdam
2016
and Bruges
2016

during their school break. October 2017 found us in Paris again with a
side trip with Atticus and Roman to the Argonne region, home of
Champagne and site of many WWI battles.
With Erica, Andrew, Atticus and
Roman back in Paris as of July 2021, Jeanne decided to visit them in
October and November 2021. Besides enjoying Paris after several years,
Erica, Jeanne and the boys took the train to La Rocelle on the Atlantic
coast to visit

Île de Ré
for several days on rented bicycles. After returning to Paris, Erica and
Jeanne visited Berlin, Germany.
