We knew it couldn’t last…

After a few quiet nearly protest free years it looks like things will be getting back to “manifestation normality” or possibly worse.

It began earlier this year with the extraordinary rising costs of production for the many French artisans throughout the country. We are not quite ready to replace these small businesses with super stores because of their necessity to the many rural areas.

But that’s nothing compared to the government announcement of the retirement age rising to 65. I have become French enough to assure you that is not going to happen and the protests will only become more common until this goes away.

We are making our travel plans cautiously and suggest all do the same !
