reception at the Omaha Beach Golf Club where we met the Chief Judge for that area of Normandy ; and a tour of the Senate in Paris lead by M . Arthur Gueulle , Collaborateur de Madame Agnes Canayer .
Although we had a very busy calendar , there was some downtime that allowed the Tampa delegation to enjoy additional wonders of France . I was able to visit the Mont Saint-Michel Abbey and its lovely town , the treasures of the Louve in Paris , and some wonderful French restaurants and shops . One of these restaurants was the amazing La Taverne Paillette in Le Havre , which was originally a brewery that opened in 1596 , full of history and phenomenal dishes .
Being a part of this magnificent delegation was such a joy ! Not only was I able to meet amazing people within both the Tampa delegation and the French delegation , but I was also able to make lifelong friends .
And now we leave it to our Sister City of Le Havre to come visit Tampa so we can give back to them with the same joy and kindness . It will also give us the opportunity to proudly showcase our wonderful City of Tampa and our extraordinary Hillsborough County Bar Association . Merci pour tout mes amis . ( Thank you for everything my friends ). Jusqu ’ a ce que je te revoie ! ( Till I see you again !). n
