  • Spring Break in Paris
    Spring Break in Paris Friday, March 21st to Sunday, March 30th, 2014 What you’ll do . Friday, March 21st – You’ll depart from Huntsville or Nashville International Airport bound for Europe. Usually there is a stop in one of the major cities of the east coast in order to catch your trans-Atlantic flight to Paris. Saturday, March 22nd – After flying through the night, you’ll land at Charles de Gaulle International Airport. After collecting your luggage and passing through customs, you’ll transfer into the city, usually by train. On evening one, there’s a short time for resting and refreshing at the hotel before heading out into the city for dinner and some sightseeing. You will ascend the 58-story Tour Montparnasse for the best views of Paris as the sun goes down and the lights come on in the city. Sunday, March 23rd– You’ll visit the Royal Palace of Versailles, just outside of Paris. In addition to touring the palace itself, you’ll want to visit the gardens, since Sunday is the only day the world-famous fountains are turned on. You will also have the opportunity to visit the Grand and Petit Trianon, small palaces built by the king on the grounds of Versailles in order to escape the pressures of palace life. Also not to be missed is the village-like hameau of Marie Antoinette. Later, you’ll head back to Paris for dinner and a visit to the Sacré-Coeur Basilica in Montmartre, the bohemian quarter of Paris. In Montmartre, you’ll also visit the Place du Tertre, where an artist will paint your portrait for a price.

    Region Ile-de-France PROJECTS FINANCED BY THE 2016 GREEN AND SUSTAINABILITY BOND EDITO When issuing its green and sustainability bond in June 2016, the Regional Council of Ile-de-France, over which I have the honour of presiding, undertook to present in detail, within twelve months, the projects that benefited from the funds raised. With this docu- ment, this commitment has been upheld, highlighting projects that are emblematic of actions of the Region, one of whose main mis- sions is to invest for sustainable and harmonious development for its territory. Through this reporting, the momentum driven by the Regional Council is demonstrated promoting the attractiveness of Ile-de- France, through its investments in the sectors of transport, educa- tion, higher education, research and the environmental transition. You will find a new and very structural project—the extension of the RER to the west (EOLE)—which was able to begin following the signature in 2016 of the financing protocol. It will link Paris to Mantes-la-Jolie by the mid-2020s and will directly benefit 1.4 mil- lion Ile-de-France residents. You will also find another key ability Valérie Pécresse, President of Region Ile-de-France of the Region that justified the adoption of a new multi-year invest- ment plan: the construction and renovation of six high schools, in line with the highest environmental standards, in order to cope with the population growth observed in Ile-de-France and to welcome the new high school students under the best possible conditions. In order to increase the effectiveness of its policies, the Region has also set up a wide-ranging programme of local actions to better integrate environmental and socio-economic aspects into its planning strategy.
