We love French trains. We love French men. We love French men on French trains! And here we captured a quintessentially French gentleman displaying the quintessential French shrug on our SNCF train from Fontainebleau to Paris. It's what French men do when passing the time, expressing disinterest (in both its meanings) in the present situation, or just not wanting to be involved with the tedious nature of life. We've discovered that it's best expressed by the simultaneous use of one's eyebrows, mouth, and shoulders. It's quite difficult to replicate, but Lord knows our HOTT Crew sure tried while traveling about on the subways!
And alas, our HOTT Crew finds it's time to fly home. French Shrug!
FT conveniently leaned forward so we could capture a pic of this handsome gent at our gate at Terminal 1 at Charles de Gaulle Airport as we awaited boarding for our Icelandair flight to Keflavik.
After a 2 and a half hour flight to Iceland GB was in heaven as he could stock up on his favorite dessert treat.... Snudur! GB went to graduate school in Reykjavik (Master of Arts specializing in Icelandic Sagas) and learned to love these unique treats. Kanilsudur are cinnamon flavored.
And the proper way to wash down a snudur is with another Icelandic specialty, Skyr! Skyr is an Old Norse form of cheese, and in Iceland you can even get it in drinkable form. How fun!
At the Keflavik airport we spotted these two fine dandy men waiting for their flight to... Boston! Aren't they cute!
Icelandair had fabulous service to and from Europe via it's convenient hub in Keflavik. And our HOTT Crew delighted in the stunning wines served aboard our flights. Here's a toast to a fabulous trip with DuVine Adventures!
But wait, there's more! Icelandair serves spectacular French champagne! A toast to Dodie & Mave who hosted us in Paris!
Everything was so relaxing about our adventure in France. And our flights on Icelandair lulled us into a soothing blissfulness as we watched the sun set over the coast of Maine.
Our trip has ended, but new adventures await! Stay tuned!
