Ecole de conduite

Learn to drive with a royal twist at Saint Louis driving school! All about king Saint-Louis of France (1214-1270) here. I've just now noticed that I'm there, reflected, too.
---------------------------------
Apprenez à conduire royalement ! Je viens just de m'apercevoir que je suis là aussi, reflétée...

I must be blind 'cause I embiggened the photo and still didn't see you reflected...

A rather fancy driving school. How do royals drive anyway? Sometimes they drive me crazy!

Re your comment on Stone Creek: the "unidentified" flag is the state flag of Florida.

I suppose graduating from such a school is a crowning achievement.

I could not see your reflection either. . . sigh

Okay, now you're feeding me straight lines. Yes, the drivers of Saint Louis, Missouri, could use a lot more driving education.

As to your German, I saw it in a comment on Stuttgart DP.

I don't see your reflection either. Is this a fast driving school (like race car fast) or for people who just need to learn how to drive?

@ Madame Becque: just an ordinary driving school for all of us ordinary drivers!

What a snazzy sign so un-Versaillesque, I mean respect to the image of yesterday.
Can barely imagine their Sisyphean challenge: teaching the French to drive, only a Saint can do it and only here would be harder!

Small City Scenes said...

I cannot find you either. I saw some strange things but not you--unless......
I hope everyone is now driving in a saintly manner. NOT!!!!! MB

Whenever I see a driving school vehicle, I try to stay very far away from them. You are very brave to be close enough to take a photo.

Perhaps they teach riding chariots too? :D

Reflections:I imagine that someone ( maybe your Prince) was driving your car while you took this picture!
Picture:Hey it's a charming way to learn how to drive! :)

Is this what the former-kings do in retirement?

Louis la Vache said...

So you learn to drive like a king there?
A Rolls-Royce limousine is provided?

Ah! But the king didn't drive. Someone else did the driving. So there you are, Ciel, in the back of the limo being driven like a queen! Just as it should be, n'est-ce pas?

Notre ami Bob a fait des franchises en France ;o)
