It may not have what Oklahoma can offer, but France does pretty well for itself.

Yes; I like the Pyrenees.

Great stuff Daniel.  But don't sell Oklahoma short. If I close my eyes real tight, these look almost like it!

Have you thought about running a motorcycle touring company with emphasis on taking dynamite photos?  Thanks again for the visual treat.

The wine and cheese is better and cheaper in France, yes?  :popcorn:

Yes; I like the Pyrenees.

The Pyrenees are amazing, as is the food. I've only done it by car. A bit scary, especially when you turn a corner with a 2,000 foot drop, on a road barely able to accommodate two cars, to find the road blocked by a flock of sheep :)

One of those places (another example is the British Virgin Islands) where you sound your horn before every corner, which in places can mean every few hundred feet.
