Well, these are what I think of first, mainly from a historical standpoint I guess because I've never been to France (I'm going this spring!!!)

When I think of France: a different language, loads of history, the Seine, the Louvre, the southern Mediterranean coast...

Good thoughts: yummy food, exciting history

Bad thoughts: Napoleonic wars, famine, Marie Antoinette's "let them eat cake"
