Oui, oui, monsieur! Saint-Cloud was the only track running at the time the hubby took me to Paris (professional meetings, talking about quasi-stellar objects, interstellar hydrogen clouds, dark matter, etc. I didn't attend the sessions.) Only left-handed track in Paris, elegant grandstand, wide open expanse of green atop a long climb from the river, and the tip of the Eiffel Tower visible in the background.

Going back to Paris this summer, but will have to take a day-trip to Normandy to see the racing at Deauville this time.
