It's time for another France Photohunt!

Here are the guidelines: You select one of your own photos to post that in some way utilizes the topic. Use the topic as a concrete prompt, or find a novel approach. Each person, just one post/photo per thread topic, (or two if you must)please. Photos should be resized to be no wider than 600 pixels. Too-large photos slow down the loading of the thread, and will be deleted. Read about how to post a photo in a thread, here. If you have an idea for a photo hunt topic, contact one of the Mods to offer the suggestion instead of beginning another thread.

Posting photos in the thread gives your permission for SlowTrav to eventually move the photos over to Photohunt albums in the Slow Photos site.

This week's prompt is "Transportation"

You're encouraged to describe your photo--where you shot it, details of what you were doing or what was going on, etc.

In Paris, 2006, this was the first time we saw a SmartCar. My BIL fell in love with it.

This is a TGV train that passed me as I was waiting for mine to return to Paris from Avignon. I'm always amazed at how fast these trains move.

This is a motorcycle taxi in Paris. Both driver and passenger were impossibly chic.

These policemen on horseback were taken from our apartment windon on rue de Turenne in Paris last May. They were on their way to a manifestation.

South of France, can't remember exactly where, 2006.

Slow traffic! A tractor full of grapes heading to the winery to be crushed.

Parade for the inauguration of Place de la Libération in Dijon in July 2006. Note the woman in the praying mantis head. And also the Maille shop at the back!

Here is a restored Citroen C2V on a side street in Loumarin. I loved the shiny red color.

Loved the red 2CV! That's my dream car.

It's the week of the Tour de France. Transportation IS a bicycle, on the road, in an impossibly beautiful setting. This one is the Gorges de Nesque near Sault, with Mont Ventoux in the background. Tune in July 25 to watch the Tour tackle Ventoux. Obviously, I'm a fan.

Well, someone's got to do it...:

came upon this scene in one of our walks just outside of St-Remy in 2006.
