that's it - we're leaving !!!

for annecy, france that is ! for the annual animated film festival there! this coming week is our favorite week of the whole world of all of france (and we have a lot of favorite weeks in france, considering we were born there). we have been going to annecy since 2000, but that ain't saying nothing - this is the 40th anniversary of the first time our dear papa (oh, yeah - did you know we have a famous animator dad? he directed a couple little shows called g.i.joe, jem, take a break :30 - complete resumé available upon request...) swung across the channel from london to france (in purple crushed velvet suit, if i am not mistaken...) in order to take in the most innovative animations of europe and, of course, to spend the other 95% of the day taking in kier in the garden right outside of the screening centre. here are some images from previous visits, in order to whet the appetite while we are away...

see how blurry this is? i guess the camera had as much wine as we did. yep, i sure guess so.

thankfully, these things happen a lot in annecy (drinking a glass of....while having an interesting conversation with a....):


not from annecy, but close enough...


can you tell that every single person in every single photo is drunk? it is alright...we are drunk from good french wine. (makes a difference, as i know you know)

please think of us while we are away. fifi and i are traveling alone, and you never know what two twins might get up to on a trans-atlantic flight, considering cocktails are freedotdotdot

avec amour,
b

ps. thanks Lala.

i ummm...i...little??? i'll stow away to france...just throw some airplane peanuts my way from time to time...so i don't start making funny noises.

oooo, you can cut arm and leg holes out so i can walk around! and an eye hole so i can see..i'd be sooo stealth!

if i get caught i'll just walk around in circles and i'll scream malfunction! malfunction! so they will think i'm a robotic suitcase. then you can claim me and everything will be fine. i'm all the rage in china!
