Upon arrival in Calais, France after our EuroTunnel adventure we pushed our clocks ahead one hour and went in search of French coffee and bread. We were moving toward Orgeval where we had a gorgeous b&b for 1 nite and since we were so early we overshot and headed to Reims to see the well known cathedral.
We must talk of the French Motorway first. Speed not a problem, motorway very new and modern.. but expensive.
Very expensive. And we did stop to use the restrooms and were thrilled to see they were so very new...not a bad design package but were we in for a surprise
New but barbaric. Not sure where the idea came from that the French are so
sophisticated with their bidets and all.. their public bathrooms.. everywhere we
stopped from Versailles later in our trip to the public bathrooms in cities..
if they were free, you could count on disgusting and beyond anything
I have experienced...
Check out this photo.. This was the womens...
and it was open to the world in the rear....Can you imagine your grandmother
trying to perch.... oh.. well nevermind...
