[edit]DescriptionSunset in Paris, with a story. (50065201762).jpg |
The things you do when you're young ... 1979: a friend and I, both in our early 20's decided to drive from Edinburgh, Scotland to near Montpelier in the South of France - NONSTOP (as far as possible) for a 2-week holiday. We did 470 miles to Dover, then had an enforced break on an overnight cross-channel ferry, then off again from Calais at dawn, arriving La Grande Motte, neat Montpelier in the evening, 650 miles later. In those days there were less motorways and we had to drive on ordinary roads through London, parts of Northern France and the Route Périphérique of Paris in their rush hour... We shared the driving of course, but it was an epic (and fun) journey. Total miles: 1120, or 1802 Km. Total journey time 26 hours. The car was a Renault 12 TS. My picture was taken during a brief stop in Paris, on our return journey, as the sun set. ... And we did the same thing again the next year. I've traveled through France several times since then, but never so rapidly. |
