Interesting arcticle….I doubt that the Iraqi people are going to listen to Europe about this one:

PARIS – Baghdad’s decision to re-establish the death penalty ahead of the war crimes trial of Saddam Hussein evoked a mixed reaction in Europe, recalling the split across the continent over the war that toppled the Iraqi leader.
Germany and France, two of the most vocal anti-war opponents, strongly stated their opposition  without exception  to the death penalty and called on Iraqi authorities to ensure Saddam a fair trial.

Formule 1 Hotels in Paris

My husband and I are considering staying in the Formule 1 hotels in the suburbs of Paris when we visit there to help cut costs. I was wondering if anyone knows which ones are in good locations, with easy access to public transportation into the city. It would be great if you could let me know!

Thanks,
Tish

room accommodation

hello, i need an advise on where i could get a room (not a hotel) for a two week vacation tour for me and my wife, preferably near Versailles. I want to know also the price for the accommodation.

P.S. Any family residence who can extend a room accommodation will be much appreciated. We will pay for the room stay.

Many thanks.

Classiness Factor

This is a lightharted forum out to the French or people that know them well:

Between Bush and Kerry; Who do the French think is more classy and good looking? (Remember hard politics laid aside,)

TGV, Book now or when we get to France?

Hello,
We were wondering if we should purchase our Tickets on the TGV now or when we get to France? Booking now from the States adds about $50 or more onto the price of the tickets. Handling fees, shipping fees…
We have heard from friends in Europe that we can walk up and get tickets, but my wife is concerned that we might not get on the train we need to if we wait. We are going to be traveling from Tours to Lyon on a Monday and there is only one HighSpeed train that meets our time constraints.
Any help would bwe appriciated!

Merci,
JAck
