May in Paris

A week-long vacation in France with Megue in May 2007. Love, Eat and Raise Kids! - This summarizes our impressions of the value omnipresent throughout the society as free-and-easy tourists. Started with Paris, we took a TGV for an excursion to Luberon in Provence, a (wine-country) valley residing about 1 hour drive east of Avignon.

We were grateful to get to know such open-minded people during our brief visit as Jean & Mary from Paris, Paul & Carolyn as well as Nicolas from Bonnieux, and Lilly from Roussillon.

Our visit coincided with French presidential election on Sunday May 6.
