... they were forced to part, and i kid you not they kissed on the lips. thats right THE LIPS. apparently they start early here in france....


so on we went and arrived in tours. Albeit after a long sleepless night on the train and a brief moment in paris that included a walk to the seine.
On our way into the hostel we found an old thing, and a big church, followed by an even bigger church, followed by the wrong part of old town, then a ...

So this morning a grumpy linda rolled out of bed at 6 am ready to get on the school bus and start class. yep that's right. i've gone back in time to highschool.....

The grumpiness wore off tho as becca and i trekked down to the bus stop. i can't even describe how beautiful watching the sunrise over the gulf was. the sky had a pink color, and all the hills were a pale blue/ green in the distance the sea was periwinkle. it was definitely a far better ...

Just paid a fleeting visit to St Tropez on the way to Avignon (so we thought)... had to be done really.. a quick wander around and a very quick coffee. It was much smaller than I thought. Lots of nice boats but loads of tourists too.... that was about it!

... handstands and all the rest.... spend hours cleaning the sand out of our bags and clothes! The next day was a stunning 26 degree day.. so so so nice. We never thought we would be at the beach again. Were tempted to stay but found out the next 2 days were not going to be great weather. Sadly we headed off at 4pm to head to Avignon.. Saying goodbye to the med forever was very hard.. and sad....

Saint Tropez Oct 9 The following day I enjoyed cruising the town. Its a very walkable town and I decided to begin with the bakery. Ohhhh the sandwhich I had was sooo delicious! Goat cheese ...

... table just chatting with us and sharing some insight about French culture as well as the things he really likes about the U.S. It helped us understand the sometimes lack-luster service and the American dining mind set doesn't really jive with the French way. While I wish they would learn a few things from the U.S. regarding customer service, I'm hoping their ability to linger and enjoy will rub off on me. Heck, I might even feel rushed by American waiters when ...

For whatever reason, when I booked my night train from Venice to Nice, I was only able to purchase a sleeper accomodation. Now, sleeper accomodations are significantly different from couchettes. First and foremost, you get something close to an actual bed in a sleeper, with more of a matress support and a decent pillow. The bed is premade ...

I arrived Sunday at Villa Saint-Exupery (named for the author of "The Little Prince," who had a home here) in Nice. The train ride from Barcelona was a long and tedious one, with a change of trains in Montpelier, France. Once off the train, I had two hours to wait for my connection and I was starving. There was only one place to eat a decent meal at the station, so that's where I had to go. Of course everything was in French, and of course I don't speak French ...
