Logis de France web site
The last couple days the Logis de France web site has been either unloadable or extremely slow. Is anyone else having this problem? Are they having problems of any sort, i.e. a hostile takeover, merger, etc.? We never get much French news (at least of this sort) in the US.
Thanks.

getting around in provence & nice
A friend and I plan to travel to france in late september. We would very much like to do this trip on our own (as opposed to with a Trafalgar or globus escorted tour); however, I just found out from the french consulate that california license is not exchangeable/tranferrable in france. This raises the question whether we’ll be able to get around without a car in the south part of france effectively and easily covering all these wonderful spots: aix, st.topez, arles, les baux, st.remy, cote d’azur, nice, monte carlo. Just checked the SNCF site; Routes like avignon-st.remy, avignon-les baux don’t even seem possible. Any suggestions?
Paris in August
Le Parisien ‘s headline today : En août, Paris a un charme fou
Yep, Paris is crazily charming in August. Here’s what Le Parisien has to say about it :
It’s easier to drive around, parking is free, and there’s a whole lot of animations : the capital is formidable in mid-summer. As if stress had ran away after the arrival of tourists. Smoother relations, relaxed atmosphere, between tourists asking for directions, Paris-Plage doing great, and neighbourhoods twice as lively (photo : picnic on the Pont des Arts) … Really, it is a nice plan to stay in Paris. To go out, flirt, and just simply wander around.
Yep, Paris is beautiful in the summer.
A newbie in town
Hi everyone,
I am new to this site today. I can’t believe that I never found this site before now though?, as I love everything and anything that is french, and one day hope to live there permenantly.
All my friends call me Eddie, I’m female, in my early 40s, have a wicked sense of humour (that’s what being a Brit does for you LOL) and I am very pleased to meet you all 🙂

Hi everybody
I’m new to this site, found it today actually when I search for rental camper vans i France.
I’m woman from Norway, 50 years old and I’m totally in love with the Tour de France! After watching it on tv for years, the time has come to experience the whole event live. Next year I will go to France together with my son, where we will rent a camper van and follow the last two weeks of the race. I’m SO much looking forward to it!
I will spend my time until next summer getting all the information I can about France, and I will also sign up for a couple of French courses to learn a bit of the language.

France ends split with Sharon on Jews
France on Thursday patched up a dispute over Jewish emigration to Israel, acknowledging in terse but polite terms a conciliatory speech by Ariel Sharon, the Israeli prime minister.
“We have seen the statements by the Israeli prime minister paying tribute to France for its determined action in fighting anti-Semitism, action which he said was of exemplary value,” said Hervé Ladsous, the spokesman for the French Foreign Ministry.
Health reforms approved in France
Changes include a new charge of one euro (about 65p) for seeing a doctor, an increase in the welfare levy payable by pensioners, and spending cuts.
The moves are a key part of President Jacques Chirac’s attempt to trim the budget deficit, which has exceeded EU limits for three years in a row.
The health care system is facing a 13bn-euro deficit (£8.5bn) this year.
Earlier this year an official report said the standard of care provided by French doctors was among the best in the world. But it said the system was “badly regulated and badly governed”.
It said French general practitioners prescribe drugs worth a total of about 260,000 euros each year.
