Les plus belles agences de voyage au monde

Alors... Où pourrais-je voyager aujourd’hui? // So... where could I travel today?

Today’s prompt is “agency”, agence.

The quote by Bernard Pivot that inspired the pic goes as follows:

Les dictionnaires sont les plus belles agences de voyage au monde.
Dictionaries are the most beautiful travel agencies in the world.
I sort of understand what Bernard Pivot meant, but right now it sounds rather ironic, if not sarcastic. The answer to the cat’s rhetorical question is, of course “nowhere” (nulle part). But let’s just pretend he can, shall we?

In quarantine news, nothing major. There is one strange thing though. Over the last few days Spanish media keep reporting substantial drop in “bad” part of epidemic statistics and emphasise the “good” one, while the WHO is showing some really quite strange stats in their reports. Due to change of report procedure, one hopes. Also, having botched both the return of least skilled workers after Easter and the kids-walking business, they now seem to want to keep the rest of us staying at home forever. It’s not major of course, just the normal operation.
