This is Join Us in France episode of 398 Bonjou. I'm Annie Sergeant and join us in France is the podcast where we talk about France.

Everyday life in France, great places to visit in France, French culture, history, gastronomy and news related to travel to France.

Today I bring you a conversation with Elise Riven of Toulou's guided walks about the Abbey de Cenonk and Gorde.

This is lavender central, but there's more to it than the beautiful flowers

Elise was just there on vacation with her sisters and she'll tell us all about it

with great tips about how to organize your visits and of course a little bit of the history of the Abbe de Saint-Nanc, which is just beautiful.

For the travel update of the week, let's talk about Bastille Day in France.

I know a lot of you would love to be in France around July 14th.

I'll give you some pointers on what to expect as well as

firsthand experiences about how it happened this year and you know so you can take

full advantage of the festivities and not just in Paris but all over France.

I want to update everyone on the France boot camp taking place in Toulouse May 21st until May May 27. That's going to be in

2023, but my contact at the language school is on vacation. There you go. So

this is not going to be news to many of you, but in France some things cannot get done in July and August because what a thought French people go on vacation and they do not respond to emails or

voicemails while on vacation, which is you know good I think. I'm going to take my own vacation starting next Saturday and I really need a break, so it'll be wonderful.

Donk, we'll keep you here at the Rantre.
