dansachs Posted August 13, 2021 #101 Share Posted August 13, 2021 When we went to Paris, pre-pandemic, we were glad we got tickets to both the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower before we left the States. We avoided some big-time lines by planning in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPT Trips Posted August 13, 2021 #102 Share Posted August 13, 2021 We try to get admissions in advance to any popular site we know we definitely want to visit as long as it isn’t a weather dependent outdoor visit. Just be aware of that grand French tradition, the 55 minute strike. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canal archive Posted August 14, 2021 #104 Share Posted August 14, 2021 The scariest thing ever in France was years ago during lorry drivers protest we were driving to Spain and the traffic came to a grinding halt on a French Autoroute the opposite carriageway was empty when over a slight rise appeared four huge lorries side by side followed by at least five rows of four driving very slowly it must be one of the most menacing sights I’ve ever seen and very impressive. The French do love their strikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
