With all my heart I wish you and Wolf the warmest and happiest of days! Sacher-Torte for breakfast is an excellent start!

Episode 268 (the 2nd of the French in North America episodes) about 42ish minutes in. Oh! And east of Quebec City, not northwest!

Thanks, William. Love the show and Happy Canada Day!

Oh my. I love your podcast but, as a Newfoundlander currently looking at the North Atlantic from about 100 km from Plaisance (now named Placentia), I can confirm that Quebec City is nowhere near. It is, in fact, about 1000 (one thousand) miles away. Not 100.

Dog fountain in Berczy Park! Then go to St. Lawrence Market down the street.

Oh my God, Roxanne! Can you believe this? (Let’s also point out that it would be “honoured”, which it certainly is not)

My Purolator delivery in Ottawa showed a missed transfer in Etobicoke for a whole week - but finally arrived.

Doing the same in Ottawa! In Dresden now - behold the stollens! Thumbprint cookies and almond sablés chilling before baking - on to Vilnius!

I can't imagine how hard this is. Sending you love and light and all my best. (Golden retriever Scout sends a snout nudge and a cuddle)

Sending love and peace to you and your mother. So hard.

Happy Birthday!

Wow - that brought me back. I had to look up the John Cabot one - “Codfish! So thick they stayed the progress of our ship!”
