Anyone off this week ? (1 Viewer)

[snowdrops]

Feels like an eternity since we left our wonderful, beautiful Provence, tho in reality we only got back first week of July .... ahem !! However, like a pair of Hobbits with brekky, we're off for second hols on Thurs evening. Plan is head South as usual, this time we're spending 2 weeks around the Luberon, finishing off in our beautiful, gorgeous fave St Remy. Finished packing up Jumbo this evening and gave a big smile to our funster sticker. On the 2250 eurotunnel. Anyone else off this week or heading down south ?

Ile de Rae one of our absolute favourites, post some photos please, nothing like a picnic hamper on the bike, call at the local markets for fresh baguette cheese and chilled wine maybe calling in at La Flotte at the Oyster house and enjoying a few so fresh, we've spent many an hour under the big tree at the harbour in St Martins picnicking and people watching , please share some photos.

@Mousy - please make a note of the above in our tour itinerary.

Carol, thanks for that, it sounds lovely. As you can see I've passed your message on to my tour secretary! They've been there before and as they are fans of oysters they will no doubt know the Oyster House.

We are really looking forward to the trip and you will be bombarded by photos in our blog - as yet unnamed..... Watch this space!

@cliffandger ..... @Carol sums up one of our favourites things to do on Ile de Re. The market at Blois Plage is a good one for getting the picnic
