Back in black!

Which is Marc's ringtone on his phone. Loving it.

After a very quick tour of Paris - a few sites in three hours with 50 lbs on your back, the train to Clermont was a welcome rest.

We were well met as always as Marc met us at the train station. Was great to see them again. They have been treating us way too well as always. They had a dinner party the first night but left us with a great meal and to install ourselves.

We've been hanging out and Marc and Francoise have been showing us around since then. We've been around the city, golfed 18 holes, met some new friends, and toured around the countryside today. Steve has been introduced to the cheeses in france and I don't think he's going to leave. That and he can buy a beer at McDonalds. We took him to St. Nataire today to see how that famous cheese is made.

Made a couple of appearences at my old pub and it was great that they recegnized me so quickly. Good times.

Going touring again tomorrow then off to the Alps.
