Today marks the 223rd anniversary of the Bastille Day in France. The revolution put an end to the royal authority and gave birth to the declaration of human rights.
Last year, I was on the road trip to Toulouse with Bob and Sheree. We went to see the fireworks held in Carcassonne, a fortified city in Aude Department. The fireworks that Mr. Ozaki puts together in Miyuki-no-hama in Odawara is amazing but this one in Carcassonne was superb. The entire cité looked like it was on fire. An unforgettable moment.
Nathan and I visited Carcassonne later in 2011 with Donna. It was a windy and delicious visit where we first tasted the dish called Cassoulet. The reproduction of it later at home turned out excellent and it was happily added to our family meal list. An unforgettable meal.
This year, we spent the eve of July 14th with Isabelle and Nicolas and their family, surrounded by 4 dogs and 6 puppies. Another unforgettable moment with super puppy actions.
Today, Nathan and I are packing instead of playing scrabble!
