Editorial Reviews
It's an enjoyable escape for a few hours for anyone who likes following a series through generations.
I liked how this book started with historical stories and worked towards the present and for the most part followed some of the characters from earlier stories. I like when they do this as it makes the short stories feel more like one book and its easier to get into each story when they share some details.

REVIEWED BY: AprilR, Review courtesy of My Book Addiction and More
Leahhhh12Age: 18-24Gender: female3 Stars Out Of 5June 25, 2013Leahhhh12Age: 18-24Gender: femaleQuality: 4Value: 4Meets Expectations: 4Sundays in Fredericksburg is a 4-in-1 collection that follows several generations of families living in Fredericksburg, Texas. We read these stories through the perspective of four different women from four different time periods. These stories revolve around the Sunday Houses that German communities often used.
Our first story follows Amelia and Hank. Amelia has arrived in Fredericksburg to teach at the new school. When three orphans, unwanted by their uncle, come to school, Amelia falls in love with them. Hank also cares about these children and Amelia and Hank must find a way for these children to be provided for.
The second story takes place after the end of World War I. Coming home from being a nurse, Mildred is quickly put back into nursing when the community is struck with influenza. Nelson, an out of town doctor, has come to help the town doctor. Mildred and Nelson work together to stop this epidemic, but when one of them gets sick, the other doesn't hesitate to help them to return to health.
The third story takes place after the end of World War II. Trudy loves taking photographs and longs to explore the world. When Bradley, an out-of-town journalist arrives, Trudy allows him to rent their Sunday House as he works on his journaling. As they begin spending more time together, Trudy finds herself drawn to Bradley. But is it Bradley or the idea of traveling the world that intrigues her the most?
In the fourth story, we are in the present day. Gwen is working in her aunt's antique store and Clay is in town for a class credit assignment. Both of them are staying in Sunday Houses and they enjoy spending time together.
Each story was short and sweet. I enjoyed learning about some of the German history and their community, as well as learning about Sunday Houses and what they were. While I enjoyed the stories, I just didn't like how everything happened so fast. I realize that these are each novellas, but I still felt like there was not a lot of development and for me, to really enjoy a book, I need more development. However, this was still an enjoyable book and each story was fun to read.
I received a free ecopy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion. All opinions stated are my own.
LarikSan Antonio, TXAge: 25-34Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5lovely readJune 24, 2013LarikSan Antonio, TXAge: 25-34Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5This combination of novellas about love in Fredericksburg is very inspiring.. Each couple lived in a different time period and it surprised me that while the stories are romance they were very historical and showed the changes in history and how it affected the livelihood for these German settlers very accurately.. There is only one thing that never changed in the decades that passed-true love, its a constant. I was absolutely taken with each story, and i appreciated authors for letting few months pass from first meeting and actual attraction to the declaration of love and actual wedding even though its a novella and everything is expected to move too fast. I think the initial chemistry and gradually growing love rings more of reality... Great job authors!!! Cant wait to read more of your books... I got this book for free from Nethalley in exchange for my honest opinion.

Three Times A Lady Lyrics by Isaac Hayes
Isaac Hayes Lyrics
Three Times A Lady Lyrics
Thanks for the times
That you've given me
The memories are all in my mind
And now that we've come
To the end of our rainbow
There's something
I must say out loud
You're once, twice
Three times a lady
Yes you're once twice
Three times a lady
And I love you
When we are together
The moments I cherish
With every beat of my heart
To touch you to hold you
To feel you to need you
There's nothing to keep us apart
You're once twice
Three times a lady
And I love you
I love you

Aleksandar "Saša" Đorđević (Anglicized: Sasha Djordjevic, Serbian Cyrillic: Александар "Саша" Ђорђевић, pronounced [alě̞ksaːndar sâʃa d͡ʑɔ̝̌ːrd͡ʑe̞vit͡ɕ]; born 26 August 1967) is a Serbian former professional basketball player and current coach of Bayern Munich and the Serbian national basketball team. He was a 1.88 m (6'2") point guard, and played 108 games for the Yugoslavian national basketball team. His father, Bratislav Đorđević, was coach of Crvena zvezda.[1]
In 1995, Đorđević received the Golden Badge award for Best Athlete of Yugoslavia, and the Yugoslav Olympic Committee declared him the Sportsman of the Year.[2]
Club playing career[edit]
Đorđević, who was about to turn 17 years of age, joined Partizan during summer 1984. The youngster's arrival at the club coincided with a front office shakeup that saw Yugoslav and club legend Dragan Kićanović, who had just retired from playing, assume the club vice-president role. The club also appointed Moka Slavnić, another freshly retired Yugoslav legend, to be the new head coach.
Professionally, Đorđević played for: KK Partizan (1984–1992), Philips Milano a.k.a. Recoaro Milano (1992–1994), Filodoro Bologna a.k.a. Teamsystem Bologna (1994–1996), the Portland Trail Blazers (September–December 1996, 8 games, 25 points scored), FC Barcelona (January 1997 – 1999), Real Madrid (1999–2002), Scavolini Pesaro (2003–2005), and Armani Jeans Milano (February–June 2005).
He is remembered for his buzzer-beating three-pointer in the 1992 Euroleague final, while he was with Partizan.
Đorđević retired from playing professional basketball on 3 July 2005, after an exhibition game in front of the home crowd in Belgrade, in which many of his former teammates and fierce opponents took part.
National team[edit]
Đorđević is remembered for his performance against Croatia in the 1997 EuroBasket. In the EuroBasket 1995, he put on one of the best individual performances ever in a EuroBasket final game against Lithuania, scoring 41 points, and shooting 9 of 12 on three pointers.
Coaching career[edit]
On 25 January 2006 Đorđević was named the head coach of one of his former teams, Armani Jeans Milano,[3] a position he left at the end of the 2006–07 season. In the 2011–12 season he was the head coach of Benetton Treviso.
In 2013, Đorđević was named the coach of the Serbian national basketball team.[4] He took the silver medal at the 2014 FIBA World Cup.
His second major tournament to lead the Serbian national team was the 2015 EuroBasket. In the first phase of the tournament, Serbia dominated in the toughest Group B with 5-0 record, and then eliminated Finland and Czech Republic in the round of 16 and quarterfinal game, respectively. However, they were stopped in the semifinal game by Lithuania with 67–64,[5] and eventually lost to the host team France in the bronze-medal game with 81–68.[6]
On 20 June 2015 Đorđević signed a two-year contract with the Greek team Panathinaikos.[7] Days later, he signed an extension with the Basketball Federation of Serbia to be the team selector until 2019.[8] On 20 April 2016 the club announced the termination of his contract.[9]
On 1 August 2016 Đorđević signed a two-year contract with the German team Bayern Munich.[10]
On 21 August 2016, he took the silver medal at the 2016 Summer Olympics with the Serbian national basketball team.
Đorđević is one of the UNICEF National Ambassadors for Serbia, alongside Emir Kusturica, Ana Ivanovic, and Jelena Janković, one of the founders of the humanitarian organization Group Seven, as well as the president of the Belgrade Marathon.

This is awesome, and I'll definitely be back to play it again :)
I like the dropped hints. Would be good to filter out the garbage somehow.
Design is pretty sparse obviously, but I could see this turning into a fun game if its taken further.
Very fun! I actually got really into it :)
Reasonably enjoyable game. I would like to see more forms of interaction, rather than just making one's way through a maze. It would be fun to collect objects and fight monsters. :)
Very clever arcade-ish take on a timeless classic! Would've loved to see a basic leaderboard to see how well/far the other players did.
I thought the hint dropping was really clever! Once I figured it out, it was kind of fun racing to find the right hints to get to the next level. The main issue for me was the UI for displaying the hints. On my computer, I had to scroll down to see the hints and then scroll back up to move around the map. Screens are wide these days, so I think the hint display should go on the left or right side of the page.
Overall, this one really made me smile. Definitely a fun little game!
I grew up playing Rogue-like games. This makes my soul happy. The introduction of timing and hints instead of levels, items, and combat is neat.
Only culprit I encountered was notes being unreadable on my resolution (1366x768), since the screen jumped up again on key stroke :-/
Maybe you could place it on the side or above?
Now I found a time waster … as long as I can find out how to enlarge the count down …
This is actually pretty fun. I didn't beat it. A little design attention to the page around the maze would have been nice, some bugs with the hint input and autofill.
Incredibly lo-fi and incredibly fun. Stellar job!
I liked it but it got boring quickly. It took about 2 minutes to understand what I had to do. I completed two levels but then doing the 3rd level wasn't fun anymore and I can't see anyone doing all 22 levels. Other than that good job!
MaxCDNNow Hiring! MaxCDN
Best game thus far.
The hints on the floor reminds of Dark Souls. Praise the Sun!
This is my favorite entry I've judged. The idea is beautiful.
Fun concept! Unfortunately my screen is too small to see the hint box, and if I'd scroll down, I would end up at the top of the page when navigating the maze. Good work!
This was fun to play (I'm a little biased towards roguelike games). It was quite easy to understand too. It would have been better if the instructions were on the app's page as well.
I do find that roguelikes are quite common though.
Excellent game! Only problem I had was with the hint system - I actually had no idea it existed because the resolution of my screen cut the game off perfectly at the bottom. Besides that, very good job!
Very interesting & fun game!
simple and cool.
My friends and I went through a few levels of the maze, and had fun. It might be good if there was a filter of some sort, to make sure there's no spam, or to prevent duplicates. Overall, we enjoyed it a lot. Good job!
Addictive. D:
Awesome idea!
Cool game :)

Got this problem on a test:
12 + √2x-1 = 4
Okay, so then I subtract 12 from both sides:
√2x-1 = -8
2x - 1 = 64 I then square both sides...
2x = 65 Add 1 to each side
x = 65/2 Divide both sides by two.
However, that answer doesn't work. Are there simply no solutions, then?
Hi Frublox;
That is correct, there are no solutions. Not every equation is a true statement. You always check the validity of your answer by plugging into the original equation.
Please go here:
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
hi Frublox
That answer is the solution to
-12 + √(2x-1) = -4
When you square you cannot help but introduce 'solutions' to this alternative equation as well so you were right to check the value you had.
Children are not defined by school ...........The Fonz
You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him find it within himself..........Galileo Galilei
Even when you got √2x-1 = -8 you could've said that there are no solutions, because a square root of a positive number is always positive...
Here lies the reader who will never open this book. He is forever dead.
Taking a new step, uttering a new word, is what people fear most. ― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Crime and Punishment
The knowledge of some things as a function of age is a delta function.
Yes, it always takes the principal value.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.

In the last 2-3 years, I have noticed that the interest rate on my Sears account has been gradually creeping up, to the point that it is now at or near usury (the maximum allowable by law) for my state.
I contacted Sears about lowering my rate, since I am and always have been a customer in good standing. They responded by saying that "We do not have any offers currently available with lower interest rates."
I responded back, once again mentioning that I was a long time customer and that I could easily find most of the merchandise in their stores at elsewhere, but I preferred to continue to do business with them.
Again, a response saying, "We have made note of your comments in your file. Thank You."
So Sears does what they can to rip off the consumer by charging the highest possible interest rates, and rips off loyal customers who give them business over many years.
I will be visiting the store tomorrow to pay off the remaining account balance and close my account. It will be a surprise if anyone makes an effort to talk me out of it.

Mission: Readiness is the nonpartisan national security organization of over 600 retired admirals, generals, and other retired senior military leaders calling for smart investments in America's children. It is a part of Council for a Strong America, the umbrella nonprofit for five membership organizations comprising the unique and powerful voices of retired military, business, law enforcement, faith and sports, working together to prepare young Americans for success.
"I joined Mission: Readiness to support common-sense solutions to the educational and health challenges that prevent the vast majority of the nation's young adults from being qualified for the honor of military service. While I view most public policy debates from a conservative perspective, I have seen firsthand how lawmakers across the political perspective respond when we make our case for smart investments in the nation's youth."
– Brigadier General Dennis W. Schulstad, U.S. Air Force (Retired)
Currently, more than 70 percent of 17- to 24-year olds in the U.S. cannot serve in the military, primarily because they are too poorly educated, too overweight, or have a serious criminal record. Investing early in the upcoming generation is critical to securing our nation's future. Retired admirals and generals understand that whether young people join the military or not, we must increase investments so that all young people can get the right start and succeed in life — whatever career path they choose.

Hawks rally versus Rebels
Robert Montgomery scored 31 points and led the Hawks in a second half comeback over Hickory Flat on homecoming last Friday night.
The senior had 17 points in the third quarter, leading Myrtle in a 22-0 run in the second half for the 58-48 win.
The Rebels took the early lead on a three pointer by James White and led 11-5 after the first quarter.
Hickory Flat maintained that lead despite a 5-0 run for the Hawks to open the second quarter. Montgomery brought Myrtle within two, 14-12, preceding a 6-0 Hickory Flat run to lead 20-12. Montgomery had 10 of the Hawks 15 points hat the half, as Myrtle trailed by eight.
The Rebels were ahead in the third quarter, 31-23, when Myrtle went on a 22-0 run that stretched into the fourth quarter. The run started with back-to-back three pointers by Montgomery and Ben Paist. Taylor Hogue tied the game on a pair of free throws, and Montgomery gave the Hawks the lead at 33-31.
"Robert did what great players do and made some incredibly tough shots to spark his team," Rebels coach Michael Seger said. "I'm proud of my team and their effort. I have a great group of kids that are improving daily."
James Baker stopped the run for the Rebels in the fourth on a three-point play, making it 45-34 in favor of Myrtle, and the Hawks held on to improve to 4-1.
After Montgomery's 31 points, Keon Hampton had 15 points for Myrtle, while Baker led the Rebels with 11 points, followed by Jordan Thompson with 10 points.
Hickory Flat 43 Myrtle 17 (girls)
Kaitlyn Wilson had 12 points to lead the Lady Rebels in the road win at Myrtle.
After Meshay Cox opened the game with a free throw and a 1-0 lead for the Lady Hawks, Hickory Flat went on a 13-0 run and led from then on for the road win.
Wilson had 10 points to lead all scorers at the half. Myrtle's Amber Cook had two three-pointers to lead the Lady Hawks in the third quarter.
Cox led Myrtle (1-4) with eight points for the game. Myrtle will next play against Baldwyn on Friday.

Padres can take heart in success of Rockies
It's not exactly like an old Western movie, in which John Wayne leads the cavalry over the hill, bugle blaring to save the day as a band of Indians attacked the wagon train.
But, yes, Padres fans, help is coming.
Baseball America, the bible of the minor leagues, tabbed San Antonio -- the Padres' affiliate in the Double-A Texas League -- as its minor league team of the year. And six Padres prospects made one of the publication's minor-league all-star teams.
"No question, the Padres are making progress," said John Manuel, editor in chief of Baseball America. "They're minor-league system is still No. 4 in the NL West, but they're making progress."
In light of the Rockies' success in building from within -- 16 of the 25 players on their World Series roster are homegrown --- there is a blueprint for success.
Baseball America has long panned the Padres' minor-league system. Last year, it was rated No. 29 among the 30 major-league teams. The Rockies were No. 2, the Diamondbacks No. 3, the Dodgers No. 6 and the Giants No. 21.
"I'm encouraged by what the Padres have done under Grady Fuson," Manuel said of the Padres' vice president of scouting and player development, who was hired in March 2005.
"I don't try to bash teams, but the Padres are what they are. All they really got out of the 2002 draft was Khalil Greene. What did they get from 2003? Tim Stauffer and Colt Morton. And 2004 was a disaster with Matt Bush."
But the Padres have had three solid drafts in a row.
"We have to build through our farm system," Padres CEO Sandy Alderson said. "Certainly, we want to have the flexibility to be in the market to sign free agents, but your farm system is what puts you in the position to make that key signing or the key trade to put you over the top."
Besides Greene, the Padres also got outfielders Paul McAnulty and Drew Macias from the 2002 draft. And catcher George Kottaras was traded to Boston for pitcher Cla Meredith.
Stauffer was one of the stars of the 2003 draft, but he has proven to be a fringe major leaguer at best. Morton, however, could prove to be a serviceable backup catcher.
The 2004 draft was a joke, as the Padres passed on players like Stephen Drew, Jered Weaver and Justin Verlander while straying from their college-first theory and took Mission Bay High shortstop Matt Bush. In four years, Bush has had more Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgeries (one) than games played above Single-A (zero).
The lone bright spot could be slugging first baseman Kyle Blanks, a 42nd-round selection.
With the first pick in the draft that year, the Padres went cheap, signing Bush for $3.15 million. And they're paying for it.
Fuson was hired in time to run the 2005 draft, along with scouting director Bill Gayton. That draft has yielded at least eight prospects, including first-rounders Cesar Carrillo and Cesar Ramos, second-rounders Chase Headley and Nick Hundley, third-rounder Josh Geer, seventh-rounder Will Venable, and Aaron Breit (12th round) and Brent Carter (16th round).
Likewise, the 2006 draft yielded eight prospects, including first-rounders Matt Antonelli and Chad Huffman, second-rounder Wade LeBlanc, third-rounder Cedric Hunter, fourth-rounder Nate Culp, and David Freese (ninth round), Matt Latos (11th round) and Matt Buschmann (15th round).
And Manuel likes all six Padres first-rounders from this year -- Nick Schmidt, Kellen Kulbachi, Drew Cumberland, Mitch Canham, Cory Luebke and Daniel Payne, as well as second-rounder Brad Chalk and fourth-rounders Corey Kluber and Lance Zawadzki.
"Now the Padres have players with an upside," Manuel said. "They're in better shape now than in a long time, and they need to be in the NL West.
"They got some good college hitters in Antonelli and Headley. They got some grinders and overachievers in Canham, Kulbachi and Payton, and they got more athletic up the middle with Cumberland and Zawadzki."
Said Fuson: "We have a plan now. We want hitters who had success in college and pitchers who can pitch, not just throw hard.
"If they throw hard and can pitch, that's a bonus."
Padres general manager Kevin Towers has worked wonders with low-priced free agents and trades to keep the Padres in contention. But he's a former scouting director and understands the value of teams developing their own players.
"We've had a lot of high picks over the last few years, and we got some guys who'll help us -- maybe starting in 2008," Towers said. "In the draft, you need to hit on at least a couple of your first five picks.
"Then you have to get lucky and kick up a diamond between the fifth and 15th rounds."
The Padres did exactly that in 1999, taking Jake Peavy in the 15th round.
"I'm not saying the Padres' drafts will have the impact of Colorado and Arizona," Manuel said. "But they are much better.
"We had the Padres system (No.) 29 last year. This season, they jump to somewhere between 11 and 20."

Gabrelle Brawley
Redirected from Gabrelle
this wiki
Gabrelle Brawley is an Aes Sedai of the Brown Ajah.
Appearance Edit
Gabrelle is tall, with green eyes and an upturned nose[1].
Strenght and abilities Edit
In the 'WoT Companion' Gabrelle's strength in the power is classified 19(7) which is enough to use the Travel Weaves proficiently. During the Last Battle Gabrelle heals some of the Logain's wounds, indicating her abilities in some of the Healing Weaves.
Gabrelle behaviour with Logain and her attempts to seduce or persuade him indicates the she is not the typical Brown Sister, with a mind only fascinated by books and research of ancient knowledge and very few interests to the mundane world.
History Edit
She is old enough to have been Aes Sedai much longer than Logain Ablar has even lived.
Activities Edit
Attack on the Black TowerEdit
Gabrelle was in the group of fifty or so Aes Sedai sent to destroy the Black Tower and to gentle and hang every man they found[2].
Elaida abandons the Aes Sedai sent to capture the Black Tower, including Toveine, at Alviarin's suggestion [3].
Gabrelle was captured during the ill-fated attack on the Black Tower[4], and bonded by Logain[1].
She and Toveine Gazal, the expedition's leader, agree to fall into rank below the two strongest Aes Sedai of the group, Lemai and Desandre.[1]
She is currently sleeping with Logain to get information from him.[1]
She accompanies Logain to Algarin Pendaloan's manor in Tear. While there she participates in the battle with the Trollocs and is used to burn away the dead bodies afterwards.[5]
She watches Rand al'Thor's meeting with the Daughter of the Nine Moons from a distance and Travels in as back up when it is revealed that the Daughter of the Nine Moons is actually Semirhage.[6]
Last BattleEdit
She manages to escape the Turning technique being performed by Mazrim Taim, his lackeys and sisters of the Black Ajah at the Black Tower and fights in the Last Battle alongside Logain. She tries to tell him the Seals belong to the Amyrlin Seat, and is frightened when he plans to use balefire to reach Sakarnen.[7]
Once Androl Genhald and Pevara Tazanovni recover the remaining Seals to the Dark One's prison from Taim, Gabrelle tells Logain he must break them when the time comes.[8] She is still with Logain when he makes the decision to save the refugees in Cairhien and to break the seals. It is assumed she stays with him after the Last Battle and does not return to the White Tower.

He told me that I would be receiving parcels, to track them, be home to receive them, contact him and he would download the shipping label. He contacted me daily for two weeks.
After I sent out the parcels, he wanted to see the receit that I sent them, because he was adding a rush bonus of $25.oo to every parcel I handled quickly.
The first two parcels got to Russia. The third he said to check on. By that time I had sent out three more.

Public holidays in France.
The following days are public holidays ("jours fériés") in France, when all or most shops tend to be shut.
Note that on public holidays, hypermarkets will generally be shut, so unless you have a chip and pin credit card that works in French automatic petrol pumps, you'll need to fill up on the motorway or in normal filling stations.

The average cost per kilometre depends on what proportion of the journey involves free motorways or other roads. Drivers wanting to avoid French the tolls should remember that it is not necessarily the best solution, particularly in fairly populated areas. Using other roads, with their traffic lights, speed restrictions and roundabouts will mean longer journey times and more stress. ... even if you have a satnav to help you along...
Alternatively, check out this low-tolls or no-tolls route to Southwest France and the Spanish border.
► TIP : Ways to save on motorway tolls when driving to southwest France
Though it is usually easiest and in the end worth it to take direct motorways and pay the tolls, there is one journey where you can make an appreciable saving for just a few extra kilometres.
If driving from Paris to Bordeaux and southwest France, do not follow the A 10 motorway all the way. Leave the A10 at Orleans, following A71 > A20 Toulouse. At Limoges, follow N141 > Angoulême. At Angoulême, follow the N10 for Bordeaux. All but about 60 km. of this alternative route to Bordeaux is on autoroutes or dual carriageway, but after Vierzon, it's all free. Saving: about 36 €uros less in tolls, for a distance of about 15 miles extra.... and cheaper off-motorway petrol if you need it.
Alternatively, check this low-tolls or no-tolls route to Southwest France and the Spanish border.

For more information on French motorway tolls, follow this link to the French motorway network website in English: this site provides a form to fill in, to calculate the cost of a motorway trip through France.
For a detailed route, use the route-finder map and distance calculator page on About-France.com.
►Free motorways and routes avoiding tollsThere are a few free motorways in France, and some long-distance dual carriageways that are up to motorway standard. It is even possible to drive right through France avoiding all tolls - though this is not necessarily the best nor the most economical solution. The two links below show our recommended routes to the South of France avoiding most tolls - and alternatives avoiding all tolls.
Among free motorways note in particular
► TRUNK ROADS :These in France are still popularly known as "routes nationales". However, in the framework of "regionalisation", responsibility for most roads has been devolved to local authorities, and the concept of "routes nationales" has largely disappeared. The only "N" roads that now survive are ones that - in the absence of an "autoroute", form part of the strategic national road network, such as the N21 from Limoges to Tarbes, or the N13 from Cherbourg as far as Caen.
Road numbering in France"A" roads, such as A71, are motorways, or Autoroutes
"N" roads are strategic trunk routes - the National network.
"D" roads are roads whose upkeep is paid for by the local Department, or county. They can be anything from busy local routes or former National routes now downgraded, to the quietest of country backroads.
When driving in France, it is always best to follow destinations rather than road numbers. Following the regionalisation of responsibility for many roads, the result - if you want to travel by following road numbers - is a classic state of confusion; Drivers following the N13 south from Cherbourg lose it at Caen, as it becomes the D 613 thereafter! From Evreux to Mantes the "N 13" signs reappear, but after that it's the D 113....For another example, anyone wanting to avoid the toll motorway by driving along the old "route nationale" to the southwest corner of France, from Chartres to Biarritz, will follow three disconnected sections of main road known as "N 10"; but in areas where the old N10 is now close to a parallel motorway, the road is now signed as "D 910" or the "D 1010". Some old "N" roads now blithely change their number each time they pass from one department to another !!
This is all very confusing for foreign visitors driving in France, but not so much for the French, since with the exception of motorways, they follow a destination, rather than a road number. Destinations via main trunk routes are indicated by the names of towns in white letters on a bright green background, as shown above.
Note that France also displays European route numbers where appropriate; these are marked with a white number on a green background, and are in addition to the French road number. For example the A 6 motorway from Paris to Lyon is also marked as E15 - E15 being a European route running from Inverness to Algeciras.
In the motorway sign on the right, the A43 autoroute is also indicated as being the E70; the main towns it leads towards are indicated in normal lettering; other destinations, such as airports, are indicated in italics. The word "Péage" at the bottom indicates that this is a toll motorway.

Avoiding main roads in France
"Bison Futé" and driving on the byways of France
Photo: In bygone times many great "alignements de platanes" - or avenues of plane trees - were planted to give shade to travellers on French roads, specially in the south of France. Though the plane-lined road remains one of the iconic images of France today, few remain, except for short sections on country roads, such as here in Languedoc.
"Routes bis"Sometimes you may see direction signs starting with the word Bis, in italics. These are the equivalent of the British "HR" (holiday route) itineraries, using less crowded main roads. Thus a sign saying "bis Lyon" is an alternative route avoiding the main roads, and generally with less lorry traffic. Bis, in French, means second (as in the prefix bi-).
The "Bison futé" (in English the cunning bison) is the motorist who does not follow the crowd, but seeks out less crowded easier roads, the "routes bis", thus the "bis-on". If you see a bison futé sign, it will be directing you either to alternative routes themselves or to an information point. On summer Saturdays, being a cunning bison is often well worth it, unless you love driving in heavy traffic or sitting in traffic jams.
Driving on the backroads of France requires a good map - or a Satnav that allows you to wander off the beaten track; but in many places, it can still make driving a pleasure, rather than a chore
► Avoiding ParisThis is a good idea on most days. When driving from Calais to the south of France, use the A 26 motorway via Reims, Troyes and Dijon.
If driving to south western and central France, avoid Paris going via Rouen, Evreux, Chartres and Orleans. There is no motorway between Evreux and Orleans, but the road over this section is currently being upgraded to dual carriageway, and over half of it is now complete.

If you can avoid travelling on Saturdays between July 10th and August 30th, this is very advisable. On these days, many French autoroutes - and in particular all the main arteries to the south - are liable to reach saturation. The worst bottlenecks are in the Rhone valley south of Lyons, along the south coast, and around Bordeaux.
In January and February, Alpine motorways can get hyper-snarled up with traffic.

However, outside these periods, Saturday and Sunday are the best days for driving in France, on motorways and arterial roads. Indeed, on these days, HGV's - lorries or trucks - are banned, meaning that unless you get stuck behind caravans or camper vans, combine harvesters or other various slowdowns, driving is relatively hassle-free.
Night driving in FranceDriving between the hours of 8 p.m and 6 a.m. can be a good way to avoid the traffic. Motorway driving can be considerably easier at night during peak holiday travel periods. Leaving Calais at 6 p.m., you can be almost half way down France by midnight. Depending on the route you take, you can book a hotel near the motorway near Tours (A10 route) or Bourges (A71 route) or Dijon (A26 route)
However it is vital to ensure that you have had sufficiient rest or sleep in the day before setting out on an overnight journey. Cars from the UK and Ireland must have headlight dip deflectors if driving after dark

► Petrol (Gas) stations in FranceAlmost all petrol stations in France accept Visa and Mastercard; however take care with 24h automatic pumps in supermarket forecourts. Many of these do not accept credit cards without integrated chip and PIN number. Most UK cards now have integrated chip and pin, so the times when UK cards did not work in French petrol stations are now history for most travellers. However, if you think you may need to fill up in an emergency while driving in France, check your card out at a supermarket self-service pump well before you run out. If it doesn't work, nip round and join the queue for the pay-at-the counter pumps. Make sure that you don't have to fill up in an emergency using an untested card at an unmanned filling station at night or on Sundays.
France Fuel price watch:Compared to the UK, there is not a big difference, except for diesel which is much cheaper (about 15%) in France. In early August 2016 typical supermarket fuel prices in France were :
E10 graded fuels (containing 10% of ethanol bio-fuel) are a couple of centimes cheaper, where they are available. These are compatible with most modern cars; if in doubt check with your supplier.
(There are 3.79 litres to 1 US gallon; but generally speaking cars in Europe are smaller and consume less fuel than cars in the USA.)

► Overnight stops.Motorway hotels or something else? France is very well equipped in hotels and other types of accommodation. Many of the chains , such as Novotel (3 stars) , Mercure (3 stars), Ibis (2 stars) , Ibis budget (2 stars), and Formule 1 (1 star), have outlets clustered near motorway exits, notably near the exits from toll motorways and around towns and cities. The hotel links below list only the French motorway hotels that are really easy to find.
