Time flies when you are having fun and Seb certainly made the most of his visit. Today he had to go back to his school duties and take the rather long way home via Hong Kong!

I ended up spending a lot of time on trains today but we made it safely home to Normandie.

Of course we had to sustain ourselves for the trip😁. Crêpes are a favourite, I had ham and cheese and Lavinia had Nutella and banana.

As much as I love Paris, it was lovely to get home to the clean, green fields of Normandie. As Louis remarked, Paris has a certain smell 🤨.

As convenient as the metro, trains and trams are, I got tired of being squished on them. We passed a lot of people heading to Nation for a big protest against the cost of living increases. There is talk of a general strike on Tuesday.

No petrol at the station on the way home from the train 😩.
