important - iced lollipops...... and of course the Palm Trees  "musts" for Italian tourists.........!

Suze la Rousse wine University Tina Concetta got word about her Passport from the Italian Embassy in Marseille, so we had to decide how - when - where to go in all, for how long and all the rest! Hotel reserved near the Embassy, just one night, which gives us 2 days to sightsee! Vieux Port, Bouillabaisse, les Calanques (maybe) and generally. Not forgetting the Italian PASSPORT! Planned route. We may leave Monday 4th June, take our time eating at midday in a Routiers, take our chance on a hotel for Monday Night, arrive in Marseille on the Tues 5th - book in to the hotel and go looking......! Wednesday 6th  early - at 0930hrs - Italian Embassy - PASSPORT! Depending how long that takes, back to hotel, book out and take off towards Orange and Bollene, passing many other well known places like Avignon, our aim being more Routiers restaurants, and the Wine University village of Suze la Rousse (Google it!) where the wine to be bought is second only to the best Burgundy,

 It's a fact - I never thought about such things, beleiving that my health problems were sufficiently complicated without having something like GALLSTONES ! They are just visible on the bottom right (last) image, kind of  little black/white dots. They are presenting a real problem, since an operation has been refused to date - they don't want to put me under because of the strain to my already very weak heart condition. Tomorrow (Weds 9 May 2012) is consultation day at the hospital, finally - after months, to try to figure out the future. Both I and Tina Concetta will have to take a decision eventually, after hearing the specialist. Little things - big problem!
