Hard to Avoid French Holidays in May?
I will be traveling to France next May 2007. I just found out from reading some posts that there are a lot of holidays in France in that month. I see that May 17 is Ascension, but that is fine since I will be in Switzerland that day. Arriving in Paris May 19 and staying til May 26, and no holidays that week as far as I can tell. However on May 26 I am taking the train to Provence, and I see that the 27th and the 28th are Pentecost and Whit Monday respectively. As I know much of Provence is closed on Mondays anyway, will my Sunday and Monday be noticeably affected with many closings and/or will the region be congested at that time? I only have 6 days in the region, and I can still change my frequent flyer tickets if it will be a big deal.
Thanks!
Thanks!
