bernard picked him up at 11, as we were headed to valence to meet nancy's cousin alice and her husband jim. we went our separate ways. about 5 we get a call from walker that they have been to a coal mining museum, and since the guide spoke only french, and there were a number of english only speakers they asked if anyone could translate. walker acted as the interpreter for the tour.
couple of hours later get a call from bernard saying he is forwarding a picture he took, and lets me hear the star spangled banner being played at the stadium. also tells me walks has been on the large screen as the anthem was playing. he had our american flag with him.
anyway, usa mounted a valiant second half comeback, but came up short 21-25. must have been a great match to watch. our young american had a great time and is coming home with a rugby ball of his own.
he's back...1:05 am. too excited to sleep, wants to go to montpellier for the match sunday.
