What a fabulous time was had by all who were able to partake of the 2012 Presidents Trip to France!  The French River Cruise, highlighting the Burgundy and Provence regions, by Vantage travel was a 15 day trip from July 16 - 30.  They spent 11 nights in an outside cabin on Vantage's private river ship.  The trip began in Chalon-sur-Saone and ended in Nice.  They were able to partake of 13 private tours!  Below left, Vicki and Stew Godwin enjoy a magical dinner in Paris at Le Train Bleu, a 1900 restaurant famous for the weathly Parisian guests waiting for their train to the French Rivera.
