the making of ..... 5th & 6th day

on the 5th day we were "lazy" - we had a day of and we went after breakfast to la Roque sur Cèze - a beautiful village and we also visited les Cascades de Sautadet. I forgot to bring my camera but luckily Cor had his iPhone with him ……. if you are interested in either la Roque sur Cèze either les Cascades de Sautadet, do take a look at both web-sites: http://www.laroquesurceze-gard.fr/ and http://www.gard-provencal.com/nature/sautadet.htm





on the 6th day we rented a little truck to get rid of the building waste from apartment Grenadier, in the meantime we continued working on the window in apartment l'Olivier.

the making of ............ 3rd day

we are so happy that the wall didn't collapsed during the night .....

meanwhile Cor has arrived (a day later than planned thanks to the strikes in Belgium). he immediately started digging a gully on the upper courtyard - for some extra illumination.






digging a gully is not always easy, sometimes you have to fight a way through concrete ...
