Road Trip

So, inspired by my aunty I've decided to blog my time off - even if only my mum reads it. It's a bit belated because we haven't had internet access but I've found a nice relaxed cafe in which to use the interweb.

So, Andy and I set off nice and early on Monday 27th December, proving you can fit a hell of a lot of stuff in a peugeot 106 if you really try. Journey went well as far as the eurotunnel when we got bumped to a train an hour later, that was then due to be an hour late. We sat around the terminal moaning for a while (and planning our complaint letter) and finally got to France around 3pm. Drive on French motorways very easy and got to Troyes around 8pm. Despite being tempted to drink Cava we had brought with us, we did have Champagne in Champagne and a nice dinner involving lots of cheese - start as you mean to go on.

Earlyish start again next morning, I let Andy drive and I navigated. Again pretty easy and got to Morzine about 4pm. Got to flat and it is pretty great and got all excited. Finally drank the Cava.....
