Tuesday 10 April 2012
It was raining when we got up at 6:30 to give Henri a hug goodbye before he went off to work. Roos left a while later, and we gave her a hug and a hand painted thank you card with a portrait of the two of them. Roos gave us the rest of the stollen, and we left the house keys with their houseworker.
As we left Neerkant (reluctantly) we saw people playing tennis outside in the rain!
Passing through Belgium we waved hello to Dian's father's cousin, Jerry, but couldn't stop because of our strong desire to get to Paris quickly. In the evening we entered France and pulled into a 24 hour gas station and restaurant just outside of Paris, and taking advantage of the famous French highway rest stops, made leftover chili for dinner and spent the night. Charles read Mark Twain aloud.
