Reunion ~ May 11, 2024

  • Aix-en-Provence
  • Weather: 60-75 degrees, clear skies

Aix-en-Provence is a buzz with tomorrow’s arrival of the Olympic flame bound for the Paris Olympics. To avoiding crowds, the day is spent in Sophie’s garden. She and I met walking the Camino in 2016.

  2. And so you begin another journey…Sophie looks like she has an interesting display of vintage clothing. Alsan would like to see those. Your pack sounds like something I might even be able to carry at least for a few miles. Have fun Linda. How long will you hike with Sophie?

    1. Hi Barbara, The weather has been good. Yesterday’s first rain was so light my shoes stayed dry and free from mud. Today may be a different story. How’s summer hiking in Virginia? ~linda

      1. The end of May ends my hiking in Virginia until fall. Taking a break from stinging insects, ticks, rattlesnakes, and heat. I am spending June in Colorado and will be hiking there, hopefully, with my grandchildren visiting from China. 😁
