hi all
just thought we would say hi, darren and jay here, we live here Gites La Chataigneraie - Gite / Apartment / Self Catering Sahorre, Languedoc Roussillon , Pyrenees-Orientales, Gites, Swimming Pool, Mounting Biking, Walking, Hiking, Culture, Med Beaches, Skiing and a warm welcome awaits you in the pyrenees about 45 mins from ski slopes and beaches near Perpignan. We get our 1st motorhome in a weeks time, 2001 Hymer b754, looking forward to it, we hope to explore the continent as much as we can before our 8mth old daughter starts school here (they start at 2.5yrs in france). we took early retirement at 31 to allow us to try a new more relaxed way of living, a lot more relaxed over here.
Anyway, if we can help any of you in anyway if your down this end of the world let us know, we are close to spanish border etc, we dont know a lot about the camp sites etc around here at hte moment but we soon will, we will keep a record of how we get on incase anyone is interested.
I do have a small question, our new van does not have gps, anyone recommend a good gps system thats not to expensive and has a sort of 'bus/lorry' option to keep you out the narrow places, I read some about the garmin 5000 which looked interesting, especially as it said our reversing camera could plug into it. any thoughts/suggestions? many thanks in advance, hope to see some of you on our travels soon.
