Coco exposed!

There has been a lot of talk on the Europe Board about the delights of Dijon, and the lovely Fodorite, Cocofromdijon. I have never, however, seen a picture of her on the site. I'll try to remedy that now by posting a picture of DW, Tammy, Coco, and Myself, taken in Dijon when Coco took us on a very educational and fattening tour of local patisseries. Perhaps this will help those of you that stay at her flat to recognize her.

This is my first attempt to attach a photo to one of these threads, so I'm interested to see if it works well.

I could be wrong, but I thought that once there was a picture of her with Ira posted here. Maybe it was a short video - perhaps I am thinking of something on her website though.

Great picture, nukesafe!

Good grief! Coco is a spitting image of my French son's Aunt Marie-Claire! And Marie-Claire is a nice looking gal.

I watched your video again, Ira, but did not see Coco. Saw lots of cheese, lots of yourself, even a corkscrew, but no Coco. I could hear her voice behind the camera, and looked hard for reflections in the shop windows, but the mysterious Corinne remains elusive.

BTW, it is SNOWING here in the Seattle area! I thought winter was over.

I actually attended a summer course in French at the Universite de Dijon so long ago that I am not posting the year. I always enjoy reading about Dijon as those posts evoke many warm memories.

OMG! Dick, you could have chosen another picture, you surely have tons to share much more interesting (and not with me on them!)! I remember the strong wind that day...
Adrienne you can see our meeting by clicking on the frog cakes in the middle of this page http://www.myhomeindijon.com/videos_and_pictures.htm

Pal I'm simply me and not a spitting image of someone else! And I don't have a secret affair with Ira, I don't think his Lady Wife would appreciate, and I'm a happily married woman.

Yeah, Ira should be so lucky! Besides, with Pascal being a cop, it would be really foolish.

Coco, I had never clicked on that frog cakes section of your web site before. Brings back really nice memories of that gluttenous day.

She is so adorably French. Is it something in the water?

Hello Ira,

I thought I had seen a video a while back of you with Coco. I remember it well.. most things I forget though! Go figure!

Well, Ira was lucky!

Coco gave me a lovely tour of the Dukes' Palace, charming her way into rooms that would have been closed otherwise. Very enjoyable!

Ah once again abandoned in the Gare de Dijon - waiting in vain by heurtoir quai numero 75 - and nothing - spurned again. C'est the historie de mon vie! A peut-etre l'annee prochaine?

Oh Pal I didn't abandon you! You didn't read my last posting on the Burgundy information thread where I mentioned that I was waiting for a French couple. And then "ourjetboat" also stayed and left this morning. Since this thread is about photos you can see him and his lovely wife on my website guestbook. They should be in Annecy by now. A une autre fois!
