No, we never actually visited Provence. We’ve been to Honfluer
in Calvados and Dunkirk in the Nord.
We
spent a glorious week in
Marne-la-Vallée.
We’ve been through both the Charles de
Gaulle airport and Orly. It occurs to me now that we’ve only ever seen the
north of France. If we ever had a chance to go back, it might be nice to visit
some of the southern provinces. Hey, it could happen. We could always win the
lottery; if we ever bothered to buy a ticket. In the meantime, I can always
reread Peter Mayle’s books: A Year in Provence, Toujours Provence, and Encore
Provence. Or I could re-watch the Arts and Entertainment made-for-television
production of A Year in Provence. No, we don’t actually own the video, or the books
for that matter. But it’s free to check all of them out at the library. Or it
would be if I remembered to return them.
