Je Parle Trés Peu Le Français

We seem to have landed nicely on our feet here in France. Our latest farm is a herb garden on the French / Swiss border. The people are lovely, the view is amazing, the work is enjoyable and very interesting. The family speak varying levels of English, but it's all better than our French. We're working on that though, trying to learn some new phrases and words each day.

We're on a mountain called Saléve. Apparently on a clear day you can see Mont Blanc, but it hasn't put in an appearance yet. Francoise - who owns the farm - is taking us up to the top of this mountain in a minute (so this is a short blog!). I'm sure Darren will take some good pics for you all. Our train to Geneva was good fun. We had all day to catch it and still ended up running for it!

Must go now - will elaborate a little more when I next get the chance!!!
