We have friends over often in Lectoure, or go out for lunch or dinner, always with interesting conversations. Since my friends lunch on 1 July, we had a casual supper on our terrace on 2 July, with Deirdre, Susan and Anling. Each of us brought something to the table, so it was an easy meal. On Sunday evening, Magali and Marcos met us at our house and we walked to O Badiu for dinner. It is one of our favorites! On Monday afternoon, Judy came by with her daughter Katie, and 2 grandchildren visiting from Sydney, Australia. Katie chatted with Papa and investments and Judy and I had fun with the kids. On Tuesday evening, we invited new neighbors, also new to Lectoure, Amna and Laura, for dinner. Amna purchased a home a block from us and is renovating it. Laura opened a new gift shop. Pirrko came for coffee this morning and it was so pleasant outside, we sat on the terrace.
A bonus of living in the ville of Lectoure, is seeing people we know every time we walk out our door. I walk around the village every morning, taking different paths, and we go to restaurants, boulangeries, the post office, shops, the market every Friday morning… and friends are always out and about.
