From Dublin to Marseille, Leonard spent over six hours on the journey, mainly because there was no direct flight between the two places, so they had to transfer in London.
Fortunately, as the night was about to fall, they finally saw the extended coastline and the blue Mediterranean Sea underneath the plane's wing, indicating they had arrived in Marseille.
"This city should also be a French geographic name that foreigners, aside from Paris, are less familiar with," Joan said softly on the way to the hotel by car.
"Yes, people from different countries might have different understandings of a country, but Marseille could be a common point of recognition regarding French geographical names for many foreigners," Leonard replied.
Leonard certainly knew what Joan was talking about. The names of places in France that people from different countries know can be different. For example, Chinese might first learn about the French places Harville, Alsace, and Lorraine.
