Five expats and a pup benefited from free train travel and went by RER A to St-Germin-en-Laye to pass a sunny Sunday afternoon enjoying the temporary art sculptures celebrating the 400th birthday of Louis XIV's gardener, André Le Nôtre, and some lying on the grass, chouquettes, finding the Eiffel Tower on the horizon, taking pictures and, finally, gelato.
