I have been hearing on the news,here in America, that massive rioting is occuring in France. What is going on?
No one else in our little gaggle seems worried as we trudge up toward the Cafe de Sade. My mind spins with menu possibilities in a bistro named for the marquis and tucked in the shade of his ruined chateau.
But lunch is nothing more sinister than the Provencal specialty le soupe au pistou, vegetable soup made spicier and more garlicky with each spoonful of pesto we add.The is ringed by stuffed skunks and wild boar, with nary a torture device on view.
We’re in Lacoste, France, pausing at the midway mark in a Wayfarers walking tour of Provence. We’ve already tromped up the hillside to see the marquis’s castle, his 1770s base for kidnapping locals.
My wife and I will be visiting France this March to visit our daughter who will be in school abroad – specifically in Montpellier. This will be our first time on the Continent and I can specifically say two phrases in French fluently – "I cannot speak French. Do you speak English?" (Didn’t say I could write it…)
We’ve secured our flight from the US to Paris already, but we’re trying to decide how to get from Paris to Montpellier. What are the pros and cons of flying vs TGV between the two.
Also any general ideas of things to do around Montpellier would be appreciated. We’ve got the travel books and such and have done some research on the web for hotels/apts.
SOUNDS EXOTIC
Yes – and the reality does not disappoint. Tahiti is synonymous with
images straight out of the brochures: glistening blue seas,
palm-fringed beaches and tropical tiare, or gardenia. You will
be met from the plane by groups of smiling Polynesians, wearing
garlands of flowers and singing songs of welcome – a far cry from the
usual European experience. And yet, despite being nearly 11,000 miles
away, Tahiti is an autonomous region of France, which explains the
Parisian-style cafés and supplies of French newspapers.
Hello! I love France and want to live there someday. I can speak french well but iam not as good as I would like to be. Looking for fun, upbeat person who wants to chat!
I went to Paris a few days ago and I bought one tickect from EURO MILLIONS on 07,October 2005; and I returned to USA on this day.
Can you help me in this matter. I need know the winners numbers. If I win the prize I will give you a recompense.
Thank you for your help.
