Bastille Day, in France....

July 14, 2009.

It's Bastille Day celebrations, in France!

Play your Charles Aznavour or Edith Piaf, and enjoy a little wine and cheese, on this important French historical moment date.

Maybe a little French style meal at one of our alfresco dining choices?

Watch a French movie, preferably with subtitles, and enjoy the velvet flow of the language?

So many good things have come to us from France...an appreciation of beauty (think of Versailles and Chanel), a longing for good food (isn't this what inspired Julia Child?), an emphasis on good conversation (think of all those philosophers, not least of which is Descartes ("I think, therefore I am").  

Your list?

Sing along with Piaf, to "La Vie en Rose".

How may I help you to discover special Salt Spring Island & the Southern Gulf Islands?   Call me!
