Cleanup aisle one! Cleanup aisle one!

Is that a Lumix? I bought a Kodak Pixpro AZ 425 this spring as a replacement for my non-working Lumix (the zoom feature had failed) It has great zoom feature but not only is it larger/bulkier than the Lumix but it also shakes badly when zoomed in no matter how steadily I hold the camera. I've yet to figure out a solution to that. I might try to buy a Lumix on Ebay when we get back home in the fall.

A most enjoyable day - it looks like I couldn't keep a smile off my face!

And sadly you can’t get one any more.

It"s clearly French, but could be a Mallard- Muscovy

They were sweet, with a red core, but dry, I thought.

Happy Birthday!

Oh, I know..it’s French Canadian ;)

So, how were they? Really…

It is a good idea to check the pads from time to time to remove small slivers of metal from the rims before they gouge larger slivers.
I prefer salmon/pink pads which are slightly softer, water quicker but IMHO provide better braking.

What a wonderful day!

Bonne route, Scott and Sharon!

The building could now be vacant. Maybe we could rent an apartment in there. When we stayed in the Templar house, part had been for horses, upstairs for grain and hay, and part for people.

Yes! When your life is your bike, having the bike be broken is specially no fun! How about this weird epilog: Without the expense of a new bike the P950 camera for no good reason got back on the birthday agenda. I put it in the shopping cart of London Drugs, a store chain you may remember from Victoria, but my finger hesitated on the "Buy" button. Now CBC reports that London Drugs was hacked, and they have closed all their stores (temporarily!?). But I had given them our remaining good VISA number for online purchasing (earlier one got hacked while on this trip, and we blocked it). So no new birthday camera yet!

Wow, Rambouillet is considered Paris in Paris-Brest, but Rambouillet to Paris was a whole day odyssey for us!
