And us. We cannot abide busy, crowded places. Where there are crowds of the unwashed general public (and queues everywhere), we'll be at opposite end of the world, as far away as possible!! :wave: :wave: :hotrod: ;)Quote:

After that she had a big hunk of veal T-bone which would've choked an elephant (followed by a huge cheeseboard and the desserts shown on that rather large trolley)!! :eyebrows:

Amazing that would be probably my absolute Calorie intake but overshadows the Fat intake allowed but yet thats not the main meal! :mental: The wine would then not be allowed.
Now I know where to send American contractors for work, the whole country needs a massive modernization. A nice white coat of stucco and paint over those old brick and stone buildings would brighten things up. And the food looked good but not much of it, did you make a trip to Mc Donalds an hour later?
All those cobble stones, don't they have access to black top and concrete. Very old buildings and little food, France is the third world.
Just kidding a little American humor...
Hilarious Jeff! :lol:Quote:

P.S When we visit the US (which we plan to do in the next few years), we'd like to go to a similarly remote and rural area, full of little 'one-horse towns', surrounded by amazing scenery. The plan is a 'fly-drive' type holiday, for say, a month, and to tour around a designated area, experiencing American 'village life'.
Any recommendations? :)

Alabama is nice
Yup, I was also thinking of Montana, Virginia and New England - gotta be somewhere well off of the beaten path, MILES from tourists and any form of mass commercialisation/consumerism, laidback slow-paced lifestyle, no hustle and bustle, somewhere 'unspoiled', which reflects the way that people used to live, say 30-odd years ago.
Oh, and there must be plenty of quality very typical American-style 'diners'/truck stops - the kind you find just off the highway (with a neon sign above), in the middle of nowhere, that do amazing hot-dogs, steaks, ribs and burgers!
