Hanging around in the North

After visiting the cool castles, we spent a few days visiting friends in the north of France. Here are some photos of our adventures.

A little teddy bear!

Cute.

Having a good time

Out for a walk

Sitting (and eating) like a big girl at the restaurant!

The night we went out for dinner, Aimy was lucky enough to get fresh mashed potatos from the kitchen to have for dinner, and she did quite well with it. And she watched us eat and played quietly without a problem until we were done. What a champion!

We also went to Canada while we were in the north of France. We went to Vimy Ridge on a rainy, gray day, but still had a good time. We also visited the Wellington Quarry, a limestone quarry under the city of Arras used and modified by Commonwealth soldiers during World War I to participate in the Battle of Arras. Unfortunately I don't have any photos, but I hope you'll enjoy the ones I took at Vimy.

Maple trees brought from Canada! Feels
like home.

All smiles!

Craters left from bombardments. Note the electric fence in
front- there are still live mines and ammo in the ground here.
