Time for a holiday

• 

Are you going away this Summer? We are. And France remains a popular destination within our family, so that’s where we are heading to pretty soon. The French themselves are notorious for their vacations in August, when all of the country’s economy is defunct for a month. So you have just a few days left to contact them.

We wonder where today’s French Friday Lady and her son (or grandson?) were heading to back when this superb shot was taken somewhere in the 1960s. The ‘78’ of the car’s registration is for the Yvelines department, greater Paris. so we're guessing that was the starting point. She seems well prepared and is looking calm and stress-free, despite that big caravan behind the DS and a wooden rowing boat on top of its roof, suggesting the destination will be at a lake or river?

Also note the child is wearing clothes that fit in perfectly with both the car as well as the caravan, with even colour coded socks. Speaking of dedication... Have a great holiday!
