Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown (and Don't Come Back!!)

Charlie Brown is surprised during class to learn that he and his friend Linus have been selected for a student exchange program. This unexpected news fills him with excitement as he dreams about the adventures that await them.

Eager to embark on this new adventure, Charlie leaves school and excitedly invites his loyal companions, Snoopy and Woodstock, to join him. The trio’s enthusiasm is palpable as they prepare for the upcoming trip.

Charlie finds a letter in his mailbox that is addressed specifically to him, written in an unusual language. As the mystery unfolds, it adds an intriguing layer to his upcoming journey.

Charlie receives a call from Peppermint Patty, who reveals that she and Marcie have also been selected for the program. This news further enhances the excitement as they will be on the same flight together.

At the airport, Charlie and Linus are surrounded by their friends who come to see them off. While most cheerfully shout 'Bon Voyage,' Lucy teases them by saying, 'And don’t come back!' creating a light-hearted farewell atmosphere.

At the ticket counter, it is revealed that Snoopy has secured a First Class ticket, astonishing everyone else who is relegated to economy class. This delightful twist adds a humorous touch to the departure.

During the flight, Charlie shares the mysterious letter he received, which originates from France. Marcie, who has been studying French, offers to translate the letter that hints at a welcoming invitation to the Chateau Mal Voisin.

The group enjoys a lunch break after landing in London, England, before continuing their adventure. Meanwhile, Snoopy takes the opportunity to challenge some locals to a quick match on the tennis courts at Wimbledon.

After enjoying their time in London, the group boards a train to Dover and eventually takes a hovercraft over to France. The excitement builds as they realize they are getting closer to their destination.

Upon arriving in France, the group rents a car with Snoopy taking on the role of the driver. This sets the stage for their adventure as they navigate the French countryside.

Their first stop is Morville, where Peppermint Patty and Marcie will be hosted by a family, including a boy named Pierre. Excitement fills the air as they discuss their new surroundings and friendships.

Pierre grows anxious when he hears about the Chateau Mal Voisin, warning Charlie and his friends that no one dares visit that place. His warning adds an ominous tension to their plans to stay there.

As attempts to contact the chateau yield no response, the group decides to camp in nearby stables for the night. This unexpected twist leads them on an impromptu adventure in a quaint rain-soaked town.

While Charlie and Linus fall asleep, Snoopy and Woodstock sneak away to a local pub for root beer. Their mischievous escapade contrasts with the unfolding mystery of the chateau.

Charlie and Linus wake up to find themselves covered with blankets and a delicious breakfast prepared for them. It hints at the whimsical and mysterious adventures awaiting them in France.
