Hi
We are newbies and have never made a post, even though I’ve been a member for a few years. We bought our motorhome earlier this year after taking early retirement. We’ve been on a few trips in the uk but for a maximum of 2 weeks, but we were waiting for the all clear to travel to Spain. Once the testing became easier we decided to go for it. As we are now in Spain at Camping international Calonge I thought I’d share some photos of the places we stopped of at on the way down. We live in Kent so have the advantage of only being 30 mins from euro tunnel/ferry.
On The first day after the crossing we made our way to Epernay where we stayed at a municipal campsite on the river.
Next we travelled on to Never and again stayed at a site on the river Loire which had great cycle tracks leading both ways.
Next stop was Millau, famous for the Sir Norman Foster designed bridge.
From Millau we made our way down to a campsite just outside Collioure in France, just short of the Spanish border. Lovely views of the med from our pitch.
and fantastic sun set
last leg of the outward trip was to Camping international Calonge where we are staying for 3-4. Me taking a well earned nap after drive down.
Not sure where we are going to stay on the way back, any recommendations in France would be welcome.
Also wanted to say thanks to everyone for all the invaluable information and guidance that has been posted on the forum.
