The Turners ( marieturner) and (rayv8) AKA Marie and Rex and Joan and Ray are on their way south!:thumb:
Wed 7th Nov - 8.15am Sea France ferry to Calais after spending the night parked up on Marine Drive - legit and free!!(between 6pm and 9am).
Drove to Honfleur just over the Pont De Normandie.
Aire open and plenty of space - hook up and waste dump all for 7 Euros.
Thurs 8th Nov - long day with lots of laughter - Honfleur to Le Mans. - fun and games in Champion supermarkets trying to fill up. See Gallery for Caption Competition - Ray trying to fill up in a garage with a low canopy - the poor cashier couldn't believe her eyes and thought it was hilarious!
Arrived at an aire in Laigne en Belin just south of Le Mans. In reality it was the village car park behind the church and Casino mini market. Again legit and free!
Fri 9th Nov - Gave up on N roads and villages and got on the autoroute to Champagnac La Riviere - Parc Verger - warm welcome from Bob and Di.
Had a great couple of days here - good trail for cycling.
Went to the village remembrance service on Sunday.
Mon 12th Nov - Now we're off south towards Spain and (we hope!) warmth!
It's 8C here at 10.15 am but feels colder!
More soon!
