Hi Falcon, Hope you are enjoying your trip - lots of history there. Seems like today's puzzle was pretty much a "write in". More time to bask in the great weather here... Cheers, MG
Sounds like you have a full itinerary, Falcon. Maybe you can collect material for future puzzles?
This week, indeed the offering from Cox and Rathvon was a breeze for anyone familiar with crossword-land. There was one word you might not be familiar with, and one little mis-direct, but otherwise a solid 30 minutes.
Here is the solution for those wishing to check their answers.
Merci, Merci! Bon Vacances!

Hope the great weather lasts until I get back. It has been cold in Europe and it now appears that it is going to get decidedly wetter.
DeleteThank you for keeping us in puzzles while you're on vacation. I found this one a romp compared to last week. Happy travels!
