Last night at Bonson

Tonight was a very special night in the small but very charming village of Bonson (where our dear friends Valerie and Gilles live with their children Celian and Hector). First of all, it was Gilles’ birthday today, and secondly it was kind of like a leaving do, since the whole family is moving to San Francisco in a couple of weeks’ time. So it was a happy occasion, but also a bit wistful.

It was all a bit improvised, since Valerie and Gilles have a fair bit to do still before heading off, but hey, the most important thing was that we all got together one more time for a few glasses of pastis and wine. Most of the usual suspects were there; Marie, JayJay, Aurelien, Julie and Maite, as well as a few other colleagues and friends.

Best of luck to Valerie and Gilles for their new life on the other side of the “pond” – we will for sure pay them a visit over there sometime next year!
