I noticed Kevin didn't grab another can of soap out of the mini fridge

[@kevinandleah1221]

🤣 Nope, I think he is done with the soap flavored Fanta for good!

I don't know what the situation is with closed churches in France, but in Germany it is often the case that Catholic churches are more often open and Protestant churches are more likely to be closed. Historically, this is said to be because in Catholicism the church is a sacred place of worship, while the Reformation denominations viewed the church space only from a functional point of view.
Happy hiking!

Thank you so much for the information! 😎👍

Curious there is so much Sunflowers being grown as a crop. I’ve crisscrossed the USA many times and have hardly seen any fields. Has Kevin mentioned the abundance of Sunflowers 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻 ??

[@kevinandleah1221]

Yes, the number of sunflowers in both France and Spain is wild! I brought up to Kevin just the other day that we don't see too many sunflower fields in the U.S... I think we've seen 1 ever. The fields are getting to be ready for harvest to they are less pretty right now. 🌻
