Ch. 56 - Romance in France


"Drink up my loves daddy will be here soon to pick up for your weekend together."


We were leaving for Champs las Sims today so I made french toast for breakfast.


"This is really wonderful mom.  Thanks for cooking and taking us on this trip."

"Anything to make sure you kids are doing well in school.  I'm also excited about visiting the book store for new recipes."  Creps, cheese plates and frogs legs whenever I wanted.  I couldn't wait!


After a quick makeover and a long flight in first class the four of us landed in Champs las Sims, France.


Our first stop was the general store where we took touristy photos and browsed souvenirs.


I was also going to rent kenspas for us to get around on but the shop owner recognized me and gave them to us for free.  I cast a good luck charm on him in return.


Since the purpose of our trip was for the triplets to earn extra credit we visited La Gallerie d'Art.  There was a strange opening in the wall next to a plack with an old rumpled map inside.  A fun activity for kids and tourists I was sure. 

"Oh the kids would love a treasure hunt."


"Okay take my picture on three.  One, two, three jade lion!"


While Hesper, Helios and Helicia were off taking pictures and notes I ran into the most interesting museum tour guide I had ever seen.  His name Fraggleflorf Rimplekins and he was the last of the frolls.


Fraggleflorf told me his story while we walked through the exhibits.  He'd been talking to a witch back in his time when he touched one of her glowing gems.  Next thing he knew he was being thawed out by a group of archaeologists with blow dryers.  They taught him how to live in the present day and gave him a job in the museum.  In exchange he told them about his lost race and events of the past.


I was so fascinated by the froll and his little bumble bee wings that I asked him to show me the sights when the museum closed.


The triplets learned about the Catania Cafe and decided to eat there before doing more sight seeing on their own.


Fraggleflorf and I visited the town's famed nectary.


As a famed deity of love and beauty in one of the most romantic places in the world I was immediately recognized.  The local nectar makers gave me all sorts of nectars and I gave romantic advice, made match ups and gave out charms.


The nectary boasted a huge selection of high quality vintages.  They were all so delicious Fraggi and I got a little carried away with our sampling.  


By the time the taxi dropped us off at my hotel I had decided it was time for the frolls to make a come back.


I asked Fraggleflorf to watch the stars with me and tell me the stories of his people.  He was still too gone on the nectar to notice how muddy the ground was.  Since he was not a goddess the muck embraced him eagerly.


"I think you missed a few spots Fraggi.  Here, let me help you out with them."

A note from Mellowyellow:

Hi Simmers!  I just wanted to say thanks to fellow Sims fan Cakenotlie1 for their daddy donation of Fraggleflorf Rimplekins.   His download link can be found on the fathers tab.  He and Aphrodite really hit it off Cake, she wanted to marry him by the end of her vacation lol.  If anyone has a CC free daddy donation I'd be glad to add them to the list.  Thanks for reading and happy simming!
