Four nights at a nice French hotel where we feel a bit out of place (other guests a bit snooty). Dinner in the restaurant here is a very hushed and formal affair -- not inclined to repeat the experience. It's also very rich food, served slowly, so you go to bed feeling as though you've swallowed a tub of cement. It's hard to sleep after that little lot.
Our room has a little terrace overlooking the hills. Our preference is to grab our own food and drink from a supermarket when out exploring during the day and stash it in an ice box so we can do our own thing when we get back to our room. But is this a bad thing? Is it rude to the hosts?
YANBU = Go ahead, relax and enjoy your terrace views while scoffing a big fat sarnie washed down with local wine
YABU = Only eat and drink your own stuff secretly in your room with the curtains drawn, or in a layby on the way back from the shops
