[Leica] IMG: Nathan's PAW 36: a French week

[Philippe]

I’m afraid these days are long gone Douglas.

I lived the last 30 years or so of my « active » life with a 50 minutes' break maximum. And I was one of those privileged b…ds aka as civil servants ;-)

What is definitely true is that dinner is way earlier in the UK for instance. And john is right in this respect.

Amities
Philippe, about to have a glorious nap now ;-)

They live in Brussels where the weather is already quite autumnal while here in Alicante the beaches are still full of people. Our guests really enjoyed it, as well as the food at Hostal Maruja and elsewhere. Lots of happy people here, beautiful modern art from Bordeaux, sunshine, and interesting architecture here:
