A few days in Paris (friends and favorites but lots of tourists), 2 weeks plus in the south of Spain (impressive Moorish history and architecture, plentiful tapa bars, friendly people, lots and lots of tourists) and 5 days in Lyon (great and varied market and grocery food, good restaurants, bigger than expected, very few tourists). France (outside of Paris and tourist attractions) is our favorite.

Last week of May saw us in the garden (planting and pulling weeds) and finishing closing in the patio. June should see more quality time in the garden, visitors from Japan, and hopefully a motorbike trip.
