June 2000


I spent about 10 days in France and Spain. First visiting friends at a golfcourse at the Le Chat resort near Mont Bron. After that I linked up with friends in north Spain. Not a bad view from the appartment when you wake up in the morning. The other side isn't too bad either. Playa Pals golfcourse in view. Unfortunately, it was closed on the Tuesday :-(

Further inland there are stunning views with the sunflowerfields in full bloom. On the way back through France this was the view from a mountain in the Pyrennees.

Van Gogh, eat your heart out!

Near Bordeaux there is the Eglise Talmont, 13th century. Very interesting (for about 2 minutes). Bigger, but not necessarily better is the 17th century chateau at Talmont St. Hilaire.

Amen! Look for the holy grail.
