I did the make it out to Provins today. First, Metro to Gare de l’Est, then take P translien to Provins, covered by Navigo Decouverte weekly pass. This was about an hour and 20 minute ride. On arrival, a walk from the station into town, which has very large churches, towers and other artifacts, lots of the old style houses. February is apparently not really the time to visit this place as all of the building were closed, and most of the restaurants. After a good solid walk, including a pretty solid hill in the center of town, I found a locals type restaurant and settled in for a good lunch before catching the train back. If you do want to visit, wait till warmer months and know that trains in both directions run once per hour at :46 minutes past. Having walked across a lot of France, this village reminded me of many I’d walked through in that past, and I didn’t find it hugely noteworthy. Beautiful sunny day again with temperatures starting well below 30 degrees this morning.
