Suddenly, everyone became much more interested in packing. By 6:40, their suitcases were back inside the shuttle.<\/p>\n<p>Before Tessa climbed in, she turned around and asked what she was supposed to feed her children for breakfast. I pointed toward the rental information Coralie had handed her. It included vouchers for a caf\u00e9 two blocks away. Then I closed the villa door, locked it, and returned to my kitchen.
