Towns of interest..Provence to Paris

In early October,we%26#39;re driving back from Provence to Paris.We have 3 days and will fly out on the 4th day ( mid-afternoon).

Suggestions please...having been to Paris and Nice before, are there some interesting towns that we could enjoy on our way to CDG and spend an afternoon and overnight??

IrishRovr...you%26#39;ve always got good ideas !!!

Thanks,Sharon

Lyon

How indirect are you willing to go?

We will have gone to from the CDG to Bordeaux.( yes irish Rovr we%26#39;re definitely taking your advise...don%26#39;t drive in a strange country when you%26#39;re jet-lagged !! ).then driven through Carcassonne and Montpellier on our way to our gite...south of Carpentras.

Please give us any suggestions....I don%26#39;t think we%26#39;ll do Strasbourg or anything like that . Have never seen any of the Loire Valley...a possibility....and Rocamadour looks lovely.

Thanks for the Lyon suggestion.

Auxerre is an interesting and scenic town with lots of amenities plus being well situated for day trips around that gorgeous northern Burgundy countryside. Lots to see in that area. Also, you could easily drive to CDG the morning of your p.m. flight.

Thanks Roger...I%26#39;m not familiar at all with Auxerre but will certainly check it out.
