French Alley

Romantic French Restaurant

We ate here. Let me just say nothing is really impressive about French Cuisine; it's the sauce that makes the meal. Italian wine is better than French.

If you were drunk or didn't live here, you couldn't get in.

Historic WW2 City: Oradour Sur Glane, France

This was one of the saddest places we visited. As the Nazi's were retreating from the coast, they stopped in this town and wanted to leave in defeat sending a message....they completely burned this village to the ground and killed all civilian inhabitants. So, the nazi's not only killed the jews for no reason. You should read what happened to this town. The locals want this place to be remembered, so they built a new town, just down the street. Let us learn from history.
