You need a lot of Spam in case you lose electricity.

SPAM backwards is MAPS.

So be careful, Fodorites, or you'll lose direction.

Speaking of porcine products, has anyone ever been to Ile de Porquerolles?

A brief article I just found in Conde Nast Traveler online called it "one of the Continent's secret offshore gems" and goes on to say "Privately owned for centuries?first by monks and then by a family that made a fortune mining in Mexico?this tiny island is today a car-free national park. Hiking or biking through forests fragrant with wild rosemary and thyme, with the topaz waters of the Mediterranean often in view, you'll quickly fall under the spell of the southern French coast as it existed for centuries, before it became heavily urbanized after World War II."

Owned by the Taylor family, I believe.

As with the previous Testing thread, I would now like to do my part in helping to lift the thread-count to 100 posts...and beyond.

Glad I could help. Carry on now. That is all.

elle, that must be the family that used to own it. The Conde Nast article said that it's a national park now.

One could do a porcine-product themed tour of Europe: Ile de Porquerolles, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Nottingham...

No, capo, that was me being obsure (and probably dating myself). Taylor Pork Roll used to be a popular breakfast meat in Philadelphia/New Jersey (not sure if it was exclusive to that region or not) in the 1970s or so. . .

Hey, I got it first go round....In fact, I had to take Taylor's from Philadelphia whenever I went on camping trips (more travel, folks) to western PA.

(And the posts go on...)

Remember, people, we must include some European names of cities to foil the electronic Fodor message thread deleter software. So long as the message contains &quot;travel&quot; words, the automoton thinks it's about travel, and won't delete the other content.

So, Hamburg, Cologne, Lauda-Konigshofen
Paris, Lille, Normandy

Taylor pork roll is still popular in NJ. Try pork roll, scrambled or fried egg and cheese on a warm hard roll... Excellent!

May I say, I also ate alot of SPAM in Jersey in the 50's. But, Taylor's Ham was a far better deal.
