A day trip to another town…

We arrive in Oloron Ste. Marie

| Map of City |
From the train station…
Then to the Visiters’ Center

| It’s crowded, so we get our sample and start back to the Gare |
 |
| Gare de Oloron |
 |
| Back across the Ousse |
 |
| We take the Funicular from the train station up to the Boulevard for home |

the next few days are uneventful, but still
photographically engaging.

Patrick and François come to us
We have a lively conversation in broken French and English.
We have Empanadas and wine
 |
| Yummy! Best we’ve had since we were in South America |
They offer to take us to the mountains next Saturday.
We gladly accept.
***
Christie and David invite us (& Clive) to dinner
at Gueuleton
 |
| Clive, Christie, David, John and Susie |
***
It’s Friday morning, my nose is running,
going through lots of Kleenex.
I stay home all day.
Christie comes by for a visit.
John does the laundry.
We cancel our trip for Saturday with
Patrick and François
***
Now we wait for me to feel better to enjoy
Pau for the next few days.
