Hey mate

Arms of steel after the Alps!

Not sure how far you are going along the Riviera but Cassis is definitely worth a look, past St.Tropez lot less crowded before you get to Marseilles.

Is it that noisy in the bus?
na, just when you get stuck in and do 120kph on the freeway.. at lower revs its not too loud..

Dutchy you bastard! What a trip! Unbelievable.

Idea. Leave you bus at my brothers place in Zurich and I'll go over and drive it around for you next year... Save you the trouble of bringing it back and all. Deal?

Fantastic photos and yeah, how funny the bods checking out the Split. One photo has even got what looks like a very early Porsche going the other way, and the bloke is checking you out.... :lol: :lol:

Man, such memories your photos are evoking! Yours are dated 20/08/2012. I was living in a lowlight tin top camper 20/08/1983 and we slept every night in it for 8 months, even in Monaco on the street or up in the Alps.

How long are you touring for? You've got all of us here Palm Green/Sand Green with envy!

Love it! Keep the photos coming...... :D
