A day with friends at the lake
Kevin and Rémi carrying the kayak to the water. There's a little person in the cockpit.
On the beach; Inès and Sophie waiting for the rest of us to catch up to them.
The girls sat in the kayaks on the beach

and Rémi
Kevin put the girls in the boats just off the beach and we glided them across the water back and forth between us.
Apolline
Time to go back to our place for dinner. But Apolline and Inès wanted to stay in the boats.
While we adults were packing up everything to take back to the cars, Apolline and Inès had other plans. They tried with all their might to push those kayaks back to the water. But, they would not budge.
Inès et Papa
Back at the house....Sophie made this French bing cherry (with almond flour) tarte. It was delicious.
After dinner we all went out back to play. It was so very hot and humid. The French are not used to using air conditioning, so they were fine. Kevin and I acclimated. Wasn't too bad in the shade. Inès loves to ride le chavel (the horse) when they come to our house.
Apolline likes to ride, too.
Mama watching her girls enjoy the outdoors.
The girls were great about taking turns riding the Wonder Horse.
Her face is beet red from the heat, but she was not one for slowing down. She made the most of this day.

Sophie brought out their badmitten game.
It was a good day. We look forward to another day of fun with this family.
