If it fits, we... erm... stays here? Not the ideal campsite entrance but she'll be right!
Views from the road today: Driving down to La Thuile, over Col du Petit Saint-Bernard & through La Rosière.
Random pizza in Vercelli. Nice, but last one was better. Still not 100% satisfied though - more testing required!
Italian supermarket parking... ciao bella!
Lunch stop: French side of Col du Pourtalet. Nibbling baguette, cheese & ham while admiring the Pic du Midi d'Ossau.
Views of the Valle de Tena on the way up to Col du Pourtalet. Just a short drive home today - which is handy
Today's view from the road... say no more!
Rest stop overlooking Lac de Grand Maison on the Western side of Col du Glandon. Looking nice and full thankfully.
Col pics sans velo? Avec femme will have to do Came up North side on super tiny road - defo by bike next time!
Park in central Annecy at lunchtime? No chance! But let's have a look. Arrived just as this spot was vacated. Lucky!
Scenic detour above Lake Thun. Normally I'd ride roads like this but today snail does the work saving legs for later.
Few random shots from the road today. Sadly these don't do justice to the beautiful drive through the Jura
Random shot from the road, just outside village of Quintaine. Am a sucker for rolling vineyards & a little church.
Obligatory '1st day of hols enjoying apperos & curry outside' shots *Actually 2nd day 'cos yesterday was busy!
Cool section of coast road near Ondarroa. Shame about the grey day, should've taken this when we passed earlier. Doh!
Post ride late lunch (late even in Spain!). Rolling hills & coastal views from today's spot & we're only people here.
Views from roads around Col Inharpu. Luckily was pretty much deserted - sheep aside - as not much space to pass!
Local horse family came over to say hi as we parked up at this random spot. Not much traffic around as you can guess!
Late lunch of fish & chi... oh wait, my wife is Asian, fish with spicy rice & potatoes Nice rose too. Cheers!
Late lunch after a morning's hike. Last of the fresh pasta from Italy sitting under a shady tree. We like it here
Driving the Susten Pass (2,264m) in rain & fog. You'd think it would suck but: wow! Love me some misty mountains!
After a toasty day driving across most of France time to relax: well deserved appero in a shady camp spot. Cheers!
Descent from Bielsa tunnel into France. Welcome home Nice drive up other side in Spring sunshine but no pics. Doh!
Heading North from Prades we passed mile after mile of beautiful wildflower meadows. A very calming drive
On the road early today - has it's advantages! Through gorges, forests & vineyards in this wonderful light. A Treat!
So, there's a galette/crepe van visiting the camping we're at this evening. Would be rude not to Nom, nom, nom!
Taking short break just a couple of valleys over involves driving up & over cols. Always great views from the road
Random stop for lunch overlooking Lac de Serre-Poncon. It's not about the destination...
Out and about around lunchtime, pulled over by this shady stand of trees to eat. Love being enveloped in greenery
A full fridge. And yes, light inside is blue so our whole place looks funky if no others on when you open the door
Spotted in local motorhome dealer: 'Crossover' model of our snail. Think it takes bit more than fat tyres though!
I often ride this road but drove today. Traffic here can be tricky as you see. Imagine negotiating this on a bike!
Drove up to Payolle for a stroll & ended up parking in the clouds. Still lovely, if a little chilly for summer!
Yes, we did just squeeze though that archway, somehow defying the laws of physics! Love medieval French villages!
Sunrise from a German vineyard. You have to love the random parking spots they lay on around here (Rhine valley).
Snail life. Cheers!
Not sure the solar is going to be doing much work today! Glad the snail has a nice heating system though. Brrrrrr!
More woodland adventures...
Early morning views around la Croix Blanche. More great trails & lucky cattle up here
Tonight's stop: Up at la Croix Blanche just East of Lourdes. Enjoying the tranquillity and a rather nice sunset.
Plateau de Benou is one of our favourite spots. Even better when you wake up here on such a beautiful morning!
Another day, another spectacular view to wake up to... [sigh]...
Parked by a pocket of woodland tonight. Stars picture just about possible despite light pollution from nearby Tarbes.
Not much clearance on this gateway. Tricky because of the hill we're turning onto. But it got in, sooooo... all good!
Chores around the home are never ending! All round clean for the snail today. Nice & easy with the terrace here
Hola España! Not a bad spot nor day for a first Spanish encounter. May they all be as sunny & picturesque as this!
Driving over Col de Peyresourde. Not as fun as the bike, but yeah, you can still appreciate the view I guess!
Tourist road 520 from Røldalsvatnet (lake way below the hairpins) to Sauda. Almost got blown over taking last shots!
Utne-Kinsarvik Ferry. Lovely day to cruise Hardangerfjord Cost for 'fat' motorhome (>6m) next to us 3x the price!
Torvikbygd to Jodal Ferry. In the sun! Yay!
