Happy Bastille Day

Or Bon Fete, as they say for short. Today is the French national holiday; like our July 4th. So there is no work going on here at the marina. It's very quiet and Jon and I think we might be the only ones here today; except of course for the ever present free roaming roosters and hens who rule these islands. It is a day to be with families and friends, bar-b-q, and who knows, maybe there'll be fireworks here tonight.

But July 14th is also a very special day for us. It's our wedding anniversary! Twenty six years of bliss and happiness (and the occasional blood, sweat and tears)!

So we, too, are taking the day off and wish everyone a gentle day, especially our kids, our family, and our friends.

... and no jokes about Bastille Day and marriage, please :)

Happy anniversary.

We are on holiday in the south of France and went to St Tropez yesterday. Outside the harbor we saw a Cat similar to yours lying at Anchor
