Thank you Sophia and thank you too MJ. You ladies have increased my education of an area I wanted to learn of more. The scenery is beautiful everywhere and the villages are wonderful. Thank you, thank you, thank you,
Please thank MJ for the great history lesson! Such a lovely tour of your town, and love the cemetary especially (obsessed with them). Your sister's accent is quite unlike any other French accent I've heard. Looking forward to more of your footage, and hope you feel better soon!
I enjoyed your sister's history lesson so much, thank you, MJ. What an incredible opportunity your boys had to experience the wonderful trip to France. The castle and the history of the different conquerors is so interesting, you made me want to read much more about it. Your dinner looked delicious!
Jane Shaw it s pretty interesting stuff. william the conqueror was stationed in my village before he embarked to invade england. he was a notmand hence the regio. being called normandy. my son william is named after him. i grew up with his stories and that of the templars. when the body of napoleon was brought back from sainte helene island he passwd by the village too. the old folks who were in the grande armee with him stood by the river in salute as he passed by.
Once again you manage to provide a wonderful video. Your sister is a treasure and a wonderful historian. I would love to sit in an outdoor cafe with some coffee and listen to both of you tell your stories. Edward and Willie have had an experience that most adults will never have and they are lucky to have you. Amazing video and stories until the next one...... Thank you for sharing you are amazing Sophia!
Thank you and MJ for the history lesson! You both are fascinating to listen to. You can definitely see your family resemblance. The boys look like they had a great time in France 🇫🇷 So glad you are posting these😀
Thank you SO much, Sophia, for uploading these! I always used to think that the South of France was the most beautiful part of your country but I've fallen in love with Normandy
Just Beautiful Love the stories your sister told. I really enjoyed this also I can really see that you've lost weight since your trip thankyou for sharing
Thank you Sophia. I absolutely love the history and local legends you and your sister shared. The view from the chateau was breathtaking and I loved seeing the artist's studio and paintings. I am looking forward to your video about the landing beaches!
Sophia I think you should be getting paid by tourism France, I so want to go after watching your videos. Have been a couple of years ago to Paris, Nice and Avignon, provincial France is so beautiful and your stories bring it to life so well
That was wonderful. History here in Australia is around 200 years (for the most part), although I was born and raised in Wales. Watched your video with great nostalgia. Thank you.
Awesome ! It puts me back 25 years ago ... Chateau Gaillard is a big part of my childhood memories, I could cry right now :') Thank you so much Sophia, you're the best
Thank you sooooo very much Sophia...this was amazing...I enjoyed every minute...how gorgeous your town is...Please thank your sister for the wonderful tour also...made my day....you have the best videos on utube...please keep up the great work...
Bonjour, merveilleux vlog! Beau pays et passage. Do your boys speak French? What an opportunity for them to have a French Mother and family to speak with. I am from Montreal Quebec, Canada, where just about everyone is bilingual. I grew up in an anglophone family but we all learned French. Merci et Bonnie journee ( my apologies, my I-pad can't type accents).
We loved this video!!!! I've made the family watch I love all your posts but the French ones are amazing. Loving the history and the food of course . Thank you x (Scots gal, lives in London visits France yearly, if not more ! Mother in law has a flat in old town Boulogne)
My fraternal Grandmother had the maiden name Norman. My maiden name is Garner. Married a Dhayer. Probably strong ties to that area in one form or another. So interesting and picturesque! Xx
Sophia, I hope you didn't think I was criticizing when I asked about your sister's and your accents. I am fascinated by language, and just wondered if your family noticed a difference in how you spoke French now that you have lived in the U.S. so long. I think both of you have a delightful way of speaking, and I so enjoyed your sister's history lesson. I learned French in highschool, but have not retained very much, so I am impressed with anyone who speaks multiple languages.
no at all, no worries. I am busy and do not have time to reply to comments all the time and in a timely manner. yes there is a difference in how I speak French, I forget words, I lost poetry and rhythm in the language. It drives my mom crazy
Sophia is MJ older or younger than u? I love the church you were baptized in!!! The cemetery was also very interesting. Loved this video of your trip very much.
Question: Your sister's English accent is quite different from yours. I'm sure yours is very "Americanized." Does your family tell you that you have an American accent when you speak French?
friendoftherese1 i have lived in the us since 1992 i would say i am fully inmersed. my sister does not practice english as much as she woukd like too but speaks perfect german and polish. i only speak english and spanish
Sophia, you speak three languages (I would count French as well ;) ), your sister speaks four, both of you are fantastic in history - what a great educated family you are!
Does you family notice a difference in your French accent now that you have lived in the U.S. for 25 years? Your sister was delightful by the way. She is as gifted with history lessons as you are!

Sophia teach your children french so the can communicate with their grandma, French is such a beautiful language.
Sophia is MJ older or younger than u? I love the church you were baptized in!!! The cemetery was also very interesting. Loved this video of your trip very much.
Shelly Leach she s 9 years older than me
Oh wow!! I guess you are the baby of the family then. My brothers are 21 and 16 years older than me.
