Monday, September 10th
At the age of 37 she realised she would never ride through Paris in a sports car with the warm wind in her hair....
...well 60 is the new 37, and a VW Tiguan is the new sports car, smog is the new "warm wind", and from Charles De Gaulle airport to Fontainebleu via the outskirts of Paris in a Monday morning traffic jam is close enough, isn't it?!
For some reason, everywhere we went there seemed to be another Prudence:
But you can't fool me:
Just as in English, in French "prudence" means "watch out"! And I do...
We spent a few hours in the afternoon visiting Fontainebleau Chateau:
Now that's opulence - those French Kings and Queens certainly knew how to live (until they lost their heads).
After meeting Carla at their lovely new flat:
We had lunch with Robert and Carla at INSEAD:
and in the evening we had a G&T:
followed by dinner at a lovely local bistro.
