Our host, Albert Bonnaudet, eating a sardine. He's a pro - just peels off the scales, doesn't have to clean it, and just nibbles off the meat on the sides of the "bones". He can go through one of these in about 30 seconds.

What's left over after picking off the meat from the fish. We had a lot of plates full of these, as a lot of the people ate 8-10 fish. A popular dish in this area!

Flolwering shrubs a short walk from our apartment. It's amazing how there are always new colors showing up on shrubs and flowers.

I know you've seen pictures of the port at La Rochelle before, but I never get tired of seeing the view as the sky, the light, and the water are always changing. This was a particularly beautiful day, and I couldn't resist another photo.

Liz and I with Theo Hermosilla, a 7 year old member boy who we are giving the abbreviated missionary lesson. He'll be baptized on September 13, and his parents asked us to teach him at their home. He is full of life, so it takes time to go through basic materials.
