Monday was Memorial Day, the unofficial start of summer. It has been a long, cold winter, so Angela & Guillaume are very happy that summer is finally here. The weather was beautiful, all the windows in the apartment were open, and a warm breeze drifted through.
On Sunday, they drove to Cape Cod to visit Aunt Andrea & Uncle Karl. First, they went to the dry cleaner to drop off Guillaume's suit for work. The shop was closed. So they got back into the car and hit the road.
To start, there was no traffic. On holiday weekends in the summertime, traffic is usually very heavy. Not on Sunday!
Whoops! Spoke too soon. As soon as they got close to the Cape:
...there was traffic.
But look here - even the motorcycles are stuck in traffic. Not like in France where they are crazy!
Finally, they arrived!
They went out back by the pool, and found Aunt Andrea, Uncle Karl, Cousin Pam and her husband Brian, and their two little girls...
And of course Andrew was there!
And of course there was a lot of food: hamburgers! hotdogs, salads, desserts, wine, beer, and some champagne for an early celebration of Angela & Guillaume's one year anniversary!
They drove home on Sunday night. Then on Monday, they went to Aunt Vas and Uncle Sal's house, where they had more food and fun! Pictures and stories soon!
