A bare famous bare beach

... in many harbors, this one was very industrial and the city center wasn’t just at the end of the ramp. It didn’t take long for Nickie and Noel to feel a lot better so all the girls put on their pajamas and brought their pillows and blankets to the main salon to watch a movie. It turned out to be a cozy, warm and comfortable evening with popcorn, snacks, drinks and cuddling all up in a huge blob with the girls.

1st night.

... to allow rain in Italy to clear. Want to re-visit Lake Garda, see if we can't get the spot right next to the lake we last had some 15 years ago, say. Don't know if it's a good idea to go back to the site of happy memories: can you improve on them in any way, or only spoil their rosy glow?
All well with rig, thankfully - you hardly know it's there!

Day 21 - Running from badgers

Distance covered: 72.5 miles

It can't be a bad if you manage 41 MPH and diss Jesus by copying his famous pose in a church! It also only dawned on us that we have been cycling through countless Vin yards and NOT stealing. So, grapes soon accompanied every meal. Don't judge me man. This is for charity.

Our spirits were high because we could finally see the sea. We camped on an over ...

Préparatifs et Départ

Tout le monde sait qu'un voyage de 2 mois ne s'improvise pas et nécessite quelque peu d'organisation. Tout le monde? C'est ce que je me disais jusqu'à ce qu'on m'appelle le vendredi 17 juillet alors que j'étais encore en vacances pour me demander si j'étais intéressé par une prestation en Hollande.
"Allo Pysnoo. Serais-tu intéressé pour partir en Hollande?
Euh??? Ais-je le choix?
Bah en fait, pas vraiment!

A sad morning

... the Grand Canyon - we sat at the top of the waterfall wading around in the cool water.

We then travelled back to a small town called Lunas where we had dinner in the fab chateau Lunas overlooking the river through the middle of town

This was a great way to end our stay in Herepian

Names in the rock and clambering up to ruins

... why not" and headed up the hil like mountain goats with Graeme and Sam leading the way. We made it to the top and were rewarded with great views and a sense of achievement (I guess)

After we got back down it was off to the lovely town of Salasc for a couple of well earned beers before heading back to the house for a late night session of chewing the fat and reminiscing

Wine and beer = a late start

Yep it was later start however Ethan was very pleased to have Graeme up and endulging in an early morning swim. Jen and Graeme went for a walk while we went and collected up the pastries for a late breakfast

After a lazy morning and lunch we headed up the Gorges D'Heric for a swim in the rock pools. It was fantastic and the coolest we had been in days.

Another barbeque and a considerably quieter evening all round!!!

Roman times

... stadium for concerts during the summer.

Next we drove up the road to the Pont d Gard which is a huge roman aquaduct built nearly 2000 years ago to carry water from Uzes to the town of Nimes.

Graeme and Rita arrived at about 5:30 and we had a barbque and a few local wines. A lovely evening all in all

Working on the French vineyard.....

... followed a rubber tire backhoe around that had an air compressor and pnumatic post pounder, we could pound 60 post/hour. We kept a good pace and finished 75% of the work over the next four days. Deanne and the others kept ahead of us and marked the rows with chalk to indicate where the next post would go. The days were hot and the wind really started to blow on those last four days we stayed at the farm, and subsequently we were always dehydrated ...

Going medieval

... to the last pig - then threw it over the walls. Apparently the besiegers decided that if they had that much food to waste, that they couldn't spend the time to wait them out - so Madame Caracas saved the town. . . . . . . popular local legend, but I'm not sure how true it was. . . . . Inside the town, it is a maze of winding streets, and little cafes (and of course all the tourist shops), but it is still ...
