Another quick start today. We have almost 400 Km to do. Quite grey but no actual complaints from The Management at the rear. #wp #livereportingfromtheroad

On the N10, heading for home and we are now in La Charente. The landscape is looking familiar and comfortable. We are going to take a break at La Rochfoucauld; just park up in the Supermarket car park to stretch legs, drink coffee and let the cat out of the bag for a while. We will shop for supplies for our first few days at home. It’s all a bit of a surprise but we are feeling good about it. #wp #livereportingfromtheroad #france #goinghome

Another sunny day, but with daffodils. Not sure where we shall end up tonight. We are aiming for a small canalside Aire but being a weekend and good weather, it may prove to be full and require a backup plan that has yet to be formulated. #wp #livereportingfromtheroad #france

French D road bliss. Of course everything could turn pearshaped any moment now. It usually does. That’s all part of the fun. #wp #livereportingfromtheroad #france

Woke up this morning expecting to drive to Arcachon but Mr Snail opened his eyes and asked if I should like to go to Gastes instead. So, that’s where we are heading. A pleasant day for it now that the mist has cleared. Quite a late start after morning coffee with fellow Gastrovanners followed by Intermarché. It’s a short journey however and we shall soon be walking Nell around the lake. Dusty won’t be coming as he has started to limp again. #wp #livereportingfromtheroad #france #gastrovanners #gastrovanner
