Wine tasting, eating and reading

The new group of tennis players are good fun, good company, and challenging to play against. They are Alphonso, Amanda, Bettie, Cheiko and James. After lunch, I took everyone, except James, to Nîmes for a look around. We came back via Domaine Costeplane to buy some rosé and Françoise kindly showed us around their cave and let us try the grape juice at various stages of fermentation. Very interesting!

The day finished with dinner at Le Fourneau de Clelia. It was a good fun evening and good to give Jan a night off.

I have just finished reading The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. Jan and I have both read it and rated it highly. An excellent book and I recommend it.
