Well we went back to France this year as our ferry to Spain was cancelled at short notice

So a few more photos in the same vain as last year

I'll try for something different in 09

Not all photos have the van in them

And we did eat well

Some great pics there mate

I am in constant negotiations with the 'Foreign Minister' (my better half),
about travelling around Europe in a splitty.
I think showing her these may just help alot!
It looks lovely and warm there too, its been so cold here - bring on summer!
Thanks for sharing!

Great pics, Will.
Which castle is that with the multiple towers and short curtain walls?
It looks circa 13th century.

Hope they help. The summer in the UK and the rest of Europe has been poor

We were lucky in France. 18 days and only 1 was very wet

August in the UK has been the dullest on record
