| 0:00.0 | This is the Join Us in France episode 372. |
| 0:05.0 | 3, Suarez Suacinth 2. |
| 0:07.0 | Bonjou, I'm Annie Sergeant and join us in France is the podcast where we talk about France. |
| 0:14.0 | Everyday life in France, great places to visit in France, |
| 0:18.6 | French culture, history, gastronomy, |
| 0:21.6 | and news related to travel during the pandemic. |
| 0:25.0 | Today I bring you a conversation with Annie Gautier about her river cruise on the Sen River. |

| 0:35.0 | long, lizieu, o'pler and more. |

| 1:24.0 | After the interview I'll thank my new patrons but this time I won't share a personal update because |
| 1:29.6 | there's not much going on in my life other than I am learning a new podcasting procedure that I hope |
| 1:35.9 | will make the podcast even better. Instead I bring you a conversation with Lisa Lyon about something unfortunate that happened to them. |
| 1:45.0 | You know that everyone who gets on an airplane needs to get tested 24 hours before boarding. |
| 1:51.0 | Well, Lisa and her family got tested in Paris and to her great surprise, |
