As we're sitting here in a cafe, waiting for our train..I (Stephanie) wonder...do the French have it right? We've gotten so frustrated with the French over the last three weeks...mainly because shops,cafes, and restaurants are barely open. There's been multiple times weve walked to a cafe only to find it closed..and even in a touristy town of St Malo we walked for about 25 minutes to find just 3 cafes open and passed by about 20.
But do the French have it right? Should we work for ourselves so we can open and close as we please, and enjoy the French scenery and beaches because you made just enough money from the tourist this morning to pay for your wine at the beach?
This is the first true culture shock/change I think we've seen so far on the trip. It took a bit to get used to...but it made me think...do they have it right?
