Vincent Van Gogh

June 1971

We are in Paris and Jean is going to kick Stephen’s buns… That has been going on since we got back. They are getting really nasty. Are you coming back? I saw Belinda in Kennedy airport but I didn’t say anything to her. I met some people from Greenhill school. They are nice but a bit typical. You know, football players and cheerleaders. Write and I’ll answer your letters when we get home.

Bye, Mary

Paris, France

April 1973

We arrived a little late but had a nice flight over with a delicious dinner and a movie yet! Bill and I went to Notre Dame and then walked around the Left Bank for a few hrs. This is a holiday here (Easter Monday) so there were lots of strollers in the sun. 57 degrees so is quite chilly. Flowering trees in bloom. Paris is lovely.

Love, Dede

Dear Mother

We got here last eve after a beautiful all day train ride from Toulouse. Our hotel here is very comfortable and charming. This is a holiday here so lots of tourists and most places closed but will be normal again tomorrow. Tommy is so impressed with the Eiffel Tower – is sending seven postcards of it to his friends! I still think Notre Dame is impressive – it is so massive and solid. Jane wants to go shoppings. Steve seeming interested in everything.

Love to you, Dede

Dear Mother

We have had a nice time in Paris – good weather, not hot. Kathy, Bill and Jane went to a movie yesterday while Jean and I visited and Dan and Tom went by subway to check on their trip to London. They leave tomorrow early, and we 3 are flying at noon to Madrid for a few days and on to Portugal and the beach. We got a letter yesterday from you forwarded from Lagos also from Tim.

Love, Dede

Jean,

We came home today after a nice time in Paris. We spent an aft. in this new center – think you and Tom would be interested in the bldg. – amazing! The other side is all huge multicolored pipes – (air cond., fresh air, that, etc)… The tunnels are walkways and escalators. We saw the Kirov ballet one night – marvelous. We walked our feet off – had nice weather, but so many people – tourists already there. ow K & I will sightsee this week here.

Love, Va.
