That sounds fun, but I won't want to stay there in the winter months! I bet that was a fun trip. France seems like such an interesting country to visit.
I got to see Paris for a couple days, when an airliner snafu left me stranded there. In the end, it was a lot of fun!
I have spent the majority of my travel time in France. I really have enjoyed every moment I got to spend there.
I think all of those old places must be horribly cold in winter!
