The Hague, Netherlands

January 1981

Wrong queen in this picture – but you will know the hall. Bill and I walked to Kourhuis this AM – my word – the place is fantastic. The blue mermaid sitting among the lobby visitors!! The beach was jammed with people (and dogs!) because it was our first warm sunny day for ages. Too crowded for me, but the park behind us and the streets were lovely. My feet seem to have revived – I walk to Stevinstraat and back easily now. More later in the week.

Love to you, Va.

Saint-Raphael, France

La Cote d’Azur, La plage et la Terrasse des Bains

June, 1973

You can imagine the beautiful view our room has. It is delightful weather – the Mediterranean is so blue today. Walked across the road and down to the beach this morning – we all got a little sunburned, I’m afraid. Have been resting and washing our clothes this afternoon. We looked through some of the shops and all had delicious pizza later.

Here I am sun bathing in my new French bathing suit on the beach in Saint-Raphael.
