France - Here we come!

Twenty two happy travelers leave tomorrow morning for France.   We'll land, very jet lagged, early Wednesday morning to start our journey.

France's Finest - Viking Cruise-Tour

I'll be posting stories and photos of our experiences as we go.  We're doing two popular itineraries back-to-back to create a 15-day river cruise that offers the ultimate journey through France. 

Some of the adventures we anticipate:

• First we'll explore the legendary French capital, Paris, and travel along the Seine through the Norman countryside to the historic Normandy beaches. 
• The second week we will drink in the colors, cuisine and wines of France’s glorious southern regions of Burgundy and Provence as we visit places like Avignon, Arles and Lyon.   Vive la France!
• We will visit 4 UNESCO World Heritage Sites
• Culture Curriculum:  we will learn about & sample a variety of French cheeses; try some Burgundian wines; see how silk printing is done today; attend lectures on Jeanne d’Arc & French Impressionists; learn to say a few words en Français; enjoy a concert of popular French tunes; visit a local market, etc...
