With our eldest son in town we went to Avignon to meet up with his French family.
Avignon was of course home to the papacy in the 14th century. So we had a wander round the gardens of the enormous papal palace.
We also saw the bridge from the nursery rhyme.
Sur le pont d’Avignon,
On y danse, on y danse
Sur le pont d’Avignon
On y danse tous en rond
As mentioned, we were not alone. There was a little chatty girl with us.
Alma is now 22 months old and babbles away in French.
She has formed a very strong bond with Cath and Matthew which was lovely to see.
