Oct. 6, 2006 We were lucky to meet up with Pete and JoAnne Landis while in France. Pete is a high school friend who started as a French teacher and ended up as an administrator at the high school and county levels. They were visiting the university town where Pete spent a year in college and they were able to meet up with us in Ales. We've had a good few days together and we certainly were able to use Pete's command of the French language!! JoAnne is also a dear friend and we all enjoyed their company. This retirement stuff is great!!
We went to Nimes today and toured the Nimes arena (colosseum)- it is the most intact colosseum left from Roman times and it is still used today for bull fighting, etc.
We left Pete and JoAnne in Nimes as they continue on with their tour of France. We look forward to visiting with them back in the states.
It was again, a wonderful day.......
