I have tossed around writing this post since just before I went to France and now that I’m back, I’ve decided to write it.

We’re now in Chamonix France after spending a couple of days in Paris and then in Beaune. 99% of this trip has been the usual fantastic time I have in France, but there is one little thing that just gets under my skin a little. When we go to a restaurant, cafe, or [...]

I’m an avid rollerblader and do 10-14k each morning at 7am before it gets too hot and humid and do my usual route along a paved walkway. At various points along my route, a route that I have to repeat numerous times to accumulate the distance I want, I have to continuously cross roads. [...]
