Another bank holiday on Wednesday - this one is La Fete de la Victoire, a holiday to celebrate the end of World War II and the French people's freedom. It is the anniversary of when Charles de Gaulle announced the end of World War II in France on May 8, 1945.
Iit is a day of celebration and remembrance with church services, ceremonies and parades. French flags fly from the tops of poles everywhere and wreaths are laid during the ceremonies at monument aux morts in each village, town and city.
Whatever you do this week in the Gironde and Dordogne regions, have a great time.
Best wishes,
Helen
