Legal drinking age in france?

[Smith]

one of the guys on my trip bought and brought through customs 12 bottles of wine (he was 14)

There's your problem. In bars they do pay a bit more attention to the legal drinking age. The best solution would be to hit a small grocery shop when the adults aren't looking your way.

apparently he is sixteen, so he should be fine

Good luck Canuk. were abouts in france are you visiting?

The trip is 8 days long. It breaks down like this:

Day 1: Flight

London

Day 2:Walking tour of london
Day 3:Guided sight seeing>Visit imperial War Museum>Visit to the Cabinet rooms.

Canterbury and Dover
Day 4: Visit to Canterbury>English Channel Crossing>Crossing to Normandy

Normandy

Day 5 (The day I'm really looking foward too):Visit the beaches of normandy>Juno beach information center>Bayeux Tapestry

Paris

Day 6: Vimy Ridge 90th Anniversary Ceremonies>Tranfer to paris>Tour of paris.

For some reason the little booklet I got didnt have the information for day 6 and 7..I think its just the trip back.

I wish we could go straight to france and spend a bit more time there, but whatever.

2000$ CAD (Flights, boat rides, hotels, tours, some form of food..ect ect)

Gotta get me a job again..

Just order the beer, if the waiter refuses due to your age, just tell him to get your damned beer. Pretty soon, seeing as he is French, he will buckle and get it for you. :-P

More likely, he's gonna' think TC is an american and be extra harsh to him, if he does that.

I know the french are a bit hostile to the Americans, what about Canadians?

What If I pinned a Canadian flag to my backpack?
