Easter in Port Vendres

Dan and Lili were in Port Vendres again this Easter, and this time, Annelise came to visit and to paint and sketch. Dan took down and set up the new single bed in the triplex bedroom at the front of the apartment - this is a super duper large single which easily sleeps two children and one large adult. With Annelise's help, a lot of work was done on getting the garden back into shape and we now also have a new gardener - Frank. Dan's sister Carol, her husband and two children, flew over from Canada to stay at the Garden Apartment in March 2008 and had this to say about their stay:

"Dear Karla, we had a great time in Port-Vendres. We absolutely loved the area -sufficiently off the beaten track, yet large enough to have great restaurants, services, etc. We couldn't have asked for a better vacation. Your apartment and garden are beautiful and very comfortable. We had many relaxing hours cooking dinners and hanging around your place. Evelynne was very kind. Everything was clean and tidy when we arrived, and hopefully we left it as tidy as we found it. Thank you so much for everything."

Carol reminded me to tell people that they have to enter Place Belieu, using the map we provide, via the higher elevation, i.e. from the Obelisk end of the harbour. Also to mention that there is a light switch right outside the main door - very useful for late arrivers during the late winter months /early spring when it might still be dark. Carol also left us a great new cookery book which we hope everyone enjoys.
