Cultural Notes By Joelle Petit Adkins

A little problem with some of the alerts

Dear Friends,
I am currently in Europe and just found out that some of you are receiving 2 or more alerts per day from our Cultural Blog. I have not posted anything since I left Southern California, so you should not receive any alert.
I am trying to fix this from here. I hope with success.
Until then, I sincerely apologize for the problem and hope it has not created any inconvenience.
I promise a few great tips from France and Spain when I return!
Thank you for your patience in this matter.
Have a wonderful day.
Joelle

Bastille Day in Los Angeles

Dear Friends,
I will be in France for Bastille Day! (the first time since 1989!). I am actually quite excited about it. However I did not forget about all of you will stay in LA for this celebration. I did a search and found a lot of fun, delicious or just cool events to go to. The list is too long so, I suggest you go to Google.com and search for: "Bastille day in Los Angeles"

So have a lot of fun on July 14th!

And if you want to "small talk" and you don't speak French, join us for our Light and Easy 8 weeks summer class at Savoir Faire Language Institute
