Well Funsters- we are off again, but I have to say it's been very uneventful up to now, unlike @Mousy s trip to The Pert Tanning Parlour!
We left on time yesterday - a miracle in itself - and got to the Chunnel in time to catch the earlier train.
We drove straight to Le Crotoy, and walked to our favourite seafood restaurant for dinner. I have to say it was a tad disappointing. The terrine St Jacques was tasteless as was the filet de poisson. I was almost wishing we'de given Montreuil 'Sur Mer' another go! But hey ho - we got talking to another British motorhoming couple, who were sitting right next to us, so the evening went well.
Then we walked back to the van, had a nightcap and then to bed - but not to sleep....,,, the van was certainly ROCKIN - I can hear the lads shouting 'woohoo'!!! But I have to disappoint - it was the windiest night I've ever spent in the van - notwithstanding the night Clifton drank 8 pints and ate a chicken Jalfrezi.... sleeping in a Hymer drop down bed you really get to experience weather conditions close at hand.
We got through the night with not much sleep and woke to torrential rain.
Moving quickly on we've covered 500kms today, preferring to drive in the rain and ending up at the Aires in Vivonne. It looks a lovely town and we are about to go for a wander as the rain has finally stopped.
Twin Lakes tomorrow, bring on The Fun!!!
I have taken photos of roundabouts while I've been a passenger but I have to say we missed some beauties whilst I was at the wheel - 'im indoors' refuses to take photos - what a sour puss he is ...,
@Jim - I'm on a 3 mifi and I can't upload any photos - help!
You'll have to imagine the usual fantastic photos I take .....
Fun to come tomorrow - @JaG we'se a cummin...
