2010 Adventures - #6 Le Perche


Some friends from our Wednesday hiking group thought that last year's trip to Lower Normandy went so well, why not do another similar trip this year in mid-August? This region is about an hour and a half northwest of Paris, called Le Perche. There were about 14 of us, and 4 cars for getting around. Click here.

We went down to the Bastille yesterday to watch two million Parisians protest, very politely thank you, against some (not all that unreasonable) proposed changes to their retirement system. Click here.

2010 Adventures - #5 Summer in the City

Parisians start winding down work activities, closing up shop and getting ready for vacation in July. Then they leave town during most of August. We enjoy the relaxed pace and quieter streets. Click here.
