France - May 2022
In
May 2022, we (Barb and John) took our second Road Scholar trip,
"French Art Voyage: Paris, the Rhône and the French Riviera." We did a similar trip in 2019 on the Seine, north of Paris, but the coronavirus and covid-19 kept us pretty close to home for a couple of years. After all of our vaccines and boosters, we were excited to travel again and explore more art in France. This
itinerary started with a time in Nice and other parts of the Riviera (Part 1) , then we
cruised to Lyon over the course of a week
(Part 2) and finally took a train from Lyon to Paris and spent 3 more days there (Part 3).
Each section will be
illustrated with some pictures but I took WAY more
pictures (as usual). They are available to peruse without the
commentary at this link.
You can enlarge any picture in this narrative by clicking on it - it
will open in a separate window and in many cases, show detail you can't
see in the small version.
This includes the beginning of the trip, our arrival in Nice,
and the first six days until we boarded the river boat.
This section begins with St. Remy de Provence and includes stops in Arles, Avignon and Lyon.
This section includes leaving Lyon, a day visiting Beaune and Dijon and the final three days in
Paris.
