And
All eyes are on Normandy and the 80th anniversary of the 1944 D-Day on June 6th. I think it fitting to publish a picture of my father in RAF uniform, when he was a young Spitfire mechanic stationed in Casablanca in 1943. (The British, the US, the French and many others had bases in Morocco at the time). The rest is history: He married my mother (her French parents were living in Casablanca), and he remained in Morocco for 50 years, as founder of Morocco’s premier tour operator company, Olive Branch Tours (now defunct) . And that’s why French is my first language!
Clive Chandler stationed in Morocco during WW2…
Thank you, Dad and all the others who fought in WW2.
PS: I am booking talks, book clubs, presentations for the Fall. I’d love to speak to your group, in San Diego County or beyond (Zoom works!)
Bismillah and Bon Appétit:
Next Chronicles: my medical mission adventure in the Peruvian (amazing) with recipes.
Merci and à bientôt,
Kitty
PPS: If you read my previous Chronicles about my misadventure with Delta Airlines (they sold or gave my reserved and confirmed business seat to someone else upon check in and transferred me in coach…) they actually sent me a partial refund. So, if the same happens to you, make noise and ask for a refund, you may get it.
