      Thanks, Peggy. We talked about you today at Sunday lunch with Pierre and Laurie and told them about what you do each week with your family. Also, how we were able occasionally to join in.

    This is one of my favorite posts. It is a heartwarming combination of family, home, and quaint and lovely surroundings. How very fortunate you and Bernie are.

    Soultz looks lovely as does the home of Bernie’s cousins. So great they could all be together, a real blessing for sure. Good-byes don’t get any easier, do they? Bernie and Pierre look like brothers which must be fun for both of them 🙂

    Safe travels back to Paris and as always look forward to your next post.

    Absolutely lovely photos and a sweet, intimate look into Bernie’s extended family. Laurie and Pierre are such attractive and smart people it’s wonderful you got a visit to their home this year. Hope the heat subsides in Paris so you can enjoy the last couple of weeks to the fullest. Your blog this summer has been better than ever! You have become a real pro at writing and Bernie has become a master photographer. Lucky us!!
