French Boating - Southern Differences

You Ain't in Paris No More....
You see a lot of differences as you head south from Paris. We were only a few hundred kilometers away but how different it is. First off, the skies! Blue, with huge white cumulus clouds. It is noticeably warmer as well. We spent most of our time trying to hide from the sun to avoid being burned.

There is much less English spoken in these parts, which is good - you get to practice your French. Everything is cheaper, especially hotel rooms. But if I had to sum it up - it's the skies!
