EASY EUROPE FRANCE FOR FAMILIES


Ah Paris in the spring. Sunshine


and bateaux mouches twinkling nights


and cafés a lot of wine and a walk


by the Seine – that can only lead


to one thing.


Nappy-changing duty.


And then you inveterate traveller


spend your next few years in


infant-friendly surroundings in violent


primary colours and then


in Disneyland. You don’t in fact have


much good to say about France


any more. But why not give it another


try? You didn’t see much beyond Paris


the last time and there are great


compromises here between Paris


and EuroDisney and vineyards that


are utterly beautiful but offer nothing


for kids. And they aren’t far from Paris


either: use the capital as a base


or better yet as an entry point and


explore great options an hour or so


away by plane train or automobile.
