May 8, 2009 - Stopping for lunch...


We arrived at Charles De Gaulle Airport outside Paris the afternoon of May 8. After picking up our rental car and navigating our way around Paris (oh what a temptation to drive right in!), we headed down the A-6 toward Burgundy. Along the way, we stopped at a little village called Milly-de-Foret and another called Perthes-au-Gatinos, hoping to find some lunch - but we had forgotten it was a French holiday, and also it was past lunchtime, so we were not invited in! We got some interesting pictures in those little villages though. Finally, we had to settle for a French hot dog on the service island on the A-6. Not a bad dog, though. Served on french bread – no squishy buns here – with gruyere cheese. But they were fresh out of "moutarde."
