So Hard to Say "Goodbye"

We had an early morning flight out of Marseille as the beginning of our trip home, so we spent our last night in France at a Holiday Inn Express near the airport.  We had numerous rounds of hugs and entreaties for us to stay from the grandchildren, but we had to go.  Mike and A drove us down to the hotel about 5 PM.
We miss these guys very much.  (The pictures they are holding were drawn by Miss R, one for each of them, who insisted that we take them all the way to France. 
We miss the warm place by the wood-burning stove.
We miss the grandkids.  Thank you J for letting us use your bed!
We miss Meredith's marvelous cooking: raclette, crepes, taco salad, quinoa pitas and more.  And who can forget the peanut butter bars that melt in your mouth!
We miss the tree-lined and winding two-lane roads.
And thank you, family, for all the wonderful daily hugs!  Au revoir!
