Tour through the Travel section

I have been slowly catching up on the Travel sections of The Times, particularly those that take me back to places fondly remembered [“Nature Studies” on Barbizon, France, by Susan Spano, May 31]. I have taught at Insead (the French business school in Fontainebleau) since the mid-’90s, and my wife and I have had the fortune to spend lots of time in its environs.

This is our first summer spent in the States since 1990, so it was nice to watch this morning’s Tour stage and then take your journey to places we know well. Thanks for making a lovely morning even nicer.
