And so came the fateful day of departure, June 20, Rebecca and Penelope to CDG and a long flight back to SFO, and Vicki and I back to our camper
Le Duc, parked at a campground in Melun, south of Paris, to continue our European Campaign 2019. Rebecca and Penelope were ready to get back home, I think, despite the end of the sabbatical and the long season of exception and excitement. For Vicki and me, the apartment was a pretty nice respite, although getting back to
Le Duc seemed something like returning "home." Rebecca had rented the apartment way back in 2018, for two months. We spent the latter month with her and Penelope, after Jeremy returned to Menlo Park. The apartment was on Rue de Faidherbe, in the 11th. Here are just a few pix...

Beautiful place, not without its eccentricities, but in an area we like very much |
