Pros: Most of France is well worth visiting. Cons: Calais is one big bad experience!
Calais is less than 25 miles from England, and is home to one of France's largest ports. If you travel to France by sea from England, chances are, your first glimpse of France will be Calais.
We recently began our touring of the Alsace region of France in the beautiful and historical city of Strasbourg , a city which in many ways seems more German than French. Situated almost at the border with Germany, the nearby Rhine River,is...
No church in France has played such an integral part in the history of the country as Reims Cathedral, in the northern part of France in the area known as Champagne. It towers above the city of Reims and is truly majestic. That it wasn’t ...
Pros: A Gorgeous Seaside Town & It Sure Beats Calais! Cons: On the verge of becoming very popular... which may just spoil its charm!
"If one started now one could breakfast in France, at Boulogne…” Oscar Wilde Well over a century ago, in the 1860’s to be exact, a fierce rivalry developed between two small ports on the northern French coastline. Both sought to capitalise on a ...
Pros: Off the beaten track, geologically fascinating, and its medieval atmosphere is very enjoyable. Cons: A bit isolated.
Smack dab in the middle of my European journey, I visited a true gem of a town in the southern Massif Central region of France. The town, Le Puy en Velay, was quite a mouthful, especially for my non-native tongue. I was quite relieved to learn that...
Pros: Home base from which to plan day trips Cons: You do have to be content with staying in one place; cleaning up your home beforehand and theirs afterwards
It is December. The weather is cold. What better time to dream of a French vacation? Not any French vacation, mind you, but one that includes the use of a house and car, and doesn't cost you for them. If you want to pay a bundle, don't mind being on your...
Pros: A history of the Day Cons: Have never gotten to participate in person!
This write up is posted as part of the Bastille Day Write-off. In honor of spirit and fairness, I was not all that familiar with Bastille Day and have opted to write about the day that we are honoring with our writing. I think knowing the history of...

Pros: Scenery, wine, Abbaye de Pommeraie Cons: almost no English spoken
We recently came back from visiting a beautiful part of France in the area known as the Alsace. This is the area next to the German border, in fact, the Vosges Mountains and the Rhine River are its eastern border. This area has been...

Pros: A great place to learn some history, in a way that you will never forget. Cons: Wandering in the woods may be very hazardous.
I am not a superstitious man. I am intelligent. I am educated. I am rational. I don’t believe in Ouija boards. I don’t believe in palm reading. I don’t believe in tarot cards. I certainly don’t believe in 900 numbers that you can call for...
Pros: Relaxing, interesting, good time Cons: the change in weather
Recently, my family and I vacationed in Normandy, France. My husband is a World War 2 history buff and, even though he had lived here in Europe for 6 years when he was younger, never went to see the battlefields of Normandy. So, we packed up and drove...
Pros: Site sacred to all those young men who died in invasion Cons: Children have to learn a little history before they can understand
It was August 1993 when I found myself drawn to this place. I had three children in tow, not the easiest way to see anything in France. Since I was making the decisions about what to show my two children and a friend’s child--without putting it to a...
