Notre Famille

We have been fortunate to have two sets of relatives visit France.  Both families were in Paris for a few days.  Since the train ride is only 1 1/2 hours away and the cost is a mere 15 euros for seniors, it is easy and economical to hop in for even a day.  Below are the Pozin family from Chicago.


Jake just turned 16, and his generous parents, Jill and Mendy, gifted him with a "sweet" Jeep which daughter Marni will drive in 2 years when Jake goes to college (Go Blue).  We went to The Avenue restaurant that is known for having beautiful models as waitresses.  The waitresses and the patrons provided a genuine Paris people watching experience.

Soon after nephew Greg Miller and his "vivant" wife, Gabrielle, and their two children arrived from Philadelphia.


Ron and Hudson tortured each other in a 3 hour marathon Monopoly game IN FRENCH which finally ended with a triumphant Hudson !
Then we were off to the Pompidou Center for a modern art escapade.



Below are the 3 girls hamming it up - Barbara, Gabrielle, and mighty Scarlett (she is incredibly strong) !




Bien sur, we are looking forward to our next visitors from home.
