I Will Attempt To Not Infect The Entire Country
I have more medicine than my local pharmacy as we head off on our journey to Burgundy, Provence, Languedoc and Paris. Thanks for all your help in my preparation, but rest assured we will screw up often. I'm hoping all the Parisians who got bronchitis because of me on the last trip won't recognize me. Hospitals throughout France have been alerted to our arrival and are on 24-hour alert. Au revoir!!

Will you be the one wearing a surgical mask, in case someone wants to run the other way when spotting you on the loose in France? The surgical mask will also help disguise you in case a previous "victim" recognizes you!

Have a great time! I look forward to the TR!

Just make sure your surgical mask doesn't look like burqa.

I was advised by a French pharmasist to always take tablets with champagne, not sure what to do with suppositories....

Flu shots and pneumonia shots before you go? You can get both at once. Good luck, take lots of photos, have a great time.

Wishing your perfect health. However, if you need an MD in Provence, we were treated by an excellent one near Avignon.

Have a wonderful time, Maitai Tom and Tracey! Happy to see you're taking another trip. Nothing for us until right after Thanksgiving when we return to Germany for one last round of Christmas markets.
