Jeff wears capri pants

Jeff and his friend Gary sport capri pants, a common Summer wear for men in France.  He hasn't worn them outside the apartment but I think Greece and Turkey will get the nod.






Yesterday we had unusual Summer rains, after a perfect record of a whole month.  I took the opportunity to do a sketch in watercolor of the town of Cassis.

We are getting ready for our trip to Greece and Turkey tomorrow.  Some friends of Natasha and Lawrence will house sit for us and take care of Niko.  We only have an evening to get Niko used to his new caretakers but if he made the 16 hour trip in the plane fine, I am sure he will be ok.

I am proud of myself.  Sunday night I went to the movies with one of our conversation partners and the movie was all in French with no subtitles.  I was able to understand a lot, enough to enjoy even some of the jokes, so I felt good about my abilities to understand French.
