The song is "April in Paris" but from what I can see, May is really the
month for romance - simply because the weather is better! For both me, and France, this last
month of May had more to it than usual.

As soon as polling stations
closed at 20:00 on 5 May in France, the first estimates
of the results gave presidential candidates Jacques Chirac a score
of 82.1 percent and Jean-Marie Le Pen 17.9 percent.

Strolling down the Rue de Rivoli on an afternoon in the month of April, my eyes swam
with images of the dead. Looking up into a bright blue Paris sky, I tried to lift my
mind from the damp, dank confines of the Catacombs, tried to pull away from the stilled-life
portraits we'd inspected so closely, tried to shake the midday chill that hung like a mist in
Cimetière Montmarte.

It's often lamented by Francophiles in exile that we "lose our French" when
away from French-speaking countries. Watching French movies we guiltily sneak a
peak at the subtitles, and reading Le Figaro we invariably reach for the
Petit Robert a few times.
