A Genuine French Strike!

When we arrived in Paris we had a little surprise: the French were on strike! What luck! :-)

The French public sector workers were protesting the government's desire to move retirement age from 60 to 62. The banner reads "40 years is already too much! No to pension reform!" Fortunately we weren't impacted and it was fun showing the boys a real French strike.

I got a kick from the wag who'd graffitied "Porcs" (Pigs) on the back of the police van.
