The next decade....what's in store?

Pleased as punch!

I was so pleased with my ability to converse in French on my trip to Guadeloupe. (Scroll down and read all the stories since the last time you visited the blog, then come back to this post....Please)

I was even more pleased when at least three French speaking people said "you speak French so well".

One was the two receptionists at the hotel we stayed at. The other was Richard at La Maison du Bois who, after he heard me speak in French, asked me what country I was from. Je suis de la Jamaique mais j'habites en Grenade. He said 'that's not possible. you speak French too well'. Then later, in the shop, I was looking to purchase some things. He called me over to where the cashier was and told me to say something in French. This was after he told her that I speak French well. I asked the price of something and she agreed with Richard.

If only I could spend a longer time in a French speaking place. Gosh. What possibilities. I love the language.
