Trick or treat? The link to "World's Best Theme-Park Halloween Parties" has changed. Regardless, you're gonna love the author's choices.

It's Oktoberfest and at The World on Wheels, we're heading to Munich...but along the way, we're going to be spending a few days on the French Riviera: http://tinyurl.com/y933d48

Fans of Lyon dining and especially Paul Bocuse, you'll want to read this, recently posted on our blog: My Dinner With Paul.

Kitty, apologies - I read your message too fast and thought you meant a place for YOU to stay whilst visiting your daughter! Hope she finds somewhere, with Karen's and Amanda's excellent advice. Alternatively there are various English-speaking French forums, where you could post a request e.g. Anglo Info Provence.

Hi Kitty,

It sounds like your daughter is doing a similar teaching program to what I did back in 2000, which was amazing!! I was in Vienne, near Lyon, and was given contact information of one of the teachers in town who helped me find a short-term apartment rental. The high school there also had rooms available for the teachers so definitely have her check with the school and materials she was provided from the program. Bonne chance a votre fille!

Kitty:  Your daughter should contact the chamber of commerce in Avignon and see if it knows of any rooms for rent. Next step (and I assume she speaks French) is to talk to everyone (meaning places that sell bread and newspapers) to see if anyone knows of a room to rent for eight months.  The tourist season will be over and people may be more than happy to make some extra income.  Cash talks in Provence.   Keep us posted.  

OH - ask at the school where she will be teaching. I suspect there may be teachers who might be looking for an apartment mate or parents with a room for rent.

Kitty - my writer for that part of France, recommends the Hotel Boquier -  the link is to the page on my site with all contact details, map and her description.

Hi guys,

  My youngest daughter Kristina is going to Avignon, France to teach for about 8 months beginning in latter September. Does anyone have any heads up on a place to stay that is reasonable and walking distance and hopefully to train station. Let me know ASAP. Thanks
