We have two favorite B&Bs in the area where we like to start and end our trip. <br /><br />Do you want me to shower you with suggestions? Probably not, so I'll just recommend lunch at La croix d'or in Le Pin la Garenne and also at Pieds dans l'eau at Langis-les-Mortagne.

We didn't want to announce anything and then have to take it back. The good news is that our U.S. marriage is official in France too, making things like medical insurance and inheritance more straightforward.
