Jean-George and Christienne invited us as their guests to a super concert in Toulon with a Russian pianist playing Tchaikovsky's Concerto number 1 and also Symphony 6 on the program. An excellent evening and topped off with a Champagne reception afterwards. Sunday, Patrick has invited us to another classical music concert in Cassis at the Camargo Foundation. This foundation supplies accommodation for visiting scholars and Jim has been looking forward to seeing their premises. It will also be interesting to meet some of the scholars currently there.
We had a super lunch in the heart of the old town of Hyeres hessterday...'marmite au pecheur'...fish soup with sal,on, rascasse, rouget, mussels, and shrimp. We haven't been into the old town of Hyeres that much this time...it really is very charming and interesting...lots of little food shops and shops of every kind.
Really looking forward to the arrival of Don and Elaine next Friday...won't be long now!
