Not a lot to report on today. Quiet night at the aire. We showered and set off for Honfleur. Did part National Route (toll free) and part motorway. We set off in blue sky and sunshine but halfway to Honfleur we hit grey skies and rain. 😕. We sauntered along and got to Honfleur about …

Good nights sleep, very quiet. Paul took Lottie for a walk to the Boulangerie to buy 2 croissants and a baguette for lunch. We set off for the Super U in Poitiers but the car park was too small so we headed for the Auchan which had an enormous car park. I should have realised …

Not an enjoyable day today really. We got in the van at 8.30am and got out at 4pm (we did have one quick wee stop and lunch at a services) took us 3 hrs to cover the first 70 miles up to the Somport Tunnel, through the tunnel and down the other side of the …

We were up early, sorted the van out and then both walked Lottie over to the supermarket to get some bread. On the way back we saw 3 squirrels chasing along the tall pine trees. Yesterday we saw a red one but these today were nearly black. Outside of the campsite there are square road …

Didn’t sleep well last night. Just before I got into bed I saw a big ant on the bed, I quickly got rid of it. As I was reading my kindle another ant walked across the page 😳 I was out of bed in a flash, pulling the bedclothes back, putting the lights on and …

Although I got up early, it took quite a while to actually leave the campsite as we had to say goodbye to various people we’d become friendly with. We both agreed we had really enjoyed our stay and would return. (Then passed a dead cat on the road outside which was very upsetting ☹️) Only …

Our local village had a market this morning so we cycled over but couldn’t find it. In the Spar we bumped into the English chap who had arrived on site yesterday with a Hobby van (the one here for 7 weeks) and he told us where it was. Turned out to be quite small so …
Saturday 22 September
Lottie woke me up about 5am as she had jumped off the bed for a drink and now required picking up and putting back on the bed (she can jump down but the bed is too high to jump up to). My head was banging, I haven’t had a hangover for quite a while so …
Saturday
We were woken about 3am by torrential rain, thunder and continuous lightning. I knew that I had to get up and close the roof lights, but you just dread that moment when you pull back the blind and the water that’s collected then drops on you. Yuk . Lottie was petrified so had to have …
Friday 20 September
We woke up to rain so took our time before making a decision as to what we were going to do with the day. After a while it seemed to stop so we decided to cycle to a nearby town, Ulldecona. I put the cycling route into Google maps and off we went, about 8 …
