I Wanna Visit France

*Excerpt from Gwen's article, "I Wanna Travel © Copyright 2006."

I wanna visit France
Enjoy the food and wine
See Paris at night -- ablaze with light
Succumb to its wondrous mystique

See Musee d'Orsay's offerings
Linger in cafes in romantic Montmartre
Behold medieval architecture
Pray in the cathedral at Chartres

Yes, I wanna view Saint Bernadette in her glass coffin
Reflect on the life of Saint Joan
See vast fields of flowers and wheat fields of gold
Blankets yet covering forgotten soldier's bones

I wanna meet someone at Le Guerre De Leon
Then ride the Orient Express
Oh yes!
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna!

Could you start over? You left me behind at the "food and wine", or was it "food and wine and Paris"? Thanks you. Dennis

Who wouldn't? I've been twice to Paris and wouldn't mind a third visit. I've been to all the places you mentioned except the orient express. However Paris is expensive but beautiful. Victor

There is no doubt that France has its charms. I am a first generation Canadadian so all of my "extended" family lives over there. For me, France is a nice place to visit but I'd rather be here. Still, if you love to travel, I can understand your dream and I hope you get to live it. Love and peace to you, Gwen,
