Finally Florence
21 de setembro de 2024, Itália ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
Installed on a very acceptable campsite in time to catch the bus to explore Florence in the afternoon. The Duomo and all around, the Palazzo Vecchio with all its history and the Ponte Vecchio.
Moving north, Albinea

Goodbye to Florence, a couple of hours driving in fairly heavy traffic, some shopping and we are just south of Reggio Emilia. This is because is has the best weather forecast for possible stops on theLeia mais
A sunny walk
26 de setembro de 2024, Itália ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C
Time to redress the balance between culture and countryside as the latter has been sadly neglected. A good 12 miles or so with a lot of climbing and extensive views northwards over the plain. Time forLeia mais
And a walk to the partisans' lookout
27 de setembro de 2024, Itália ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C
A beautiful walk along a river, with a steep climb through vineyards to reach the highest point, used as a watch point during the war. A seriously steep and skiddy descent and some dismay when itLeia mais
Just wrong side of St Gotthard tunnel
28 de setembro de 2024, Suíça ⋅ 🌧 9 °C
There's a view out there somewhere. The other photo shows the Italian morning.
Better when not seen through heavy rain
29 de setembro de 2024, Suíça ⋅ ☀️ 9 °C
It's a good thing it stopped raining as we were able to drive out without getting stuck in the muddy ruts that are artfully excluded from the photo. It was only 7 ° c though.
In and out of Germany

France for lunch

Pretty good view of Les Ballons des Vosges from the motorway aire.
Back in Germany
29 de setembro de 2024, Alemanha ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C
We're not used to living on national borders so it still seems odd to travel through a sequence of countries such as Switzerland, Germany, France, Germany, with Luxembourg, Belgium and France to comeLeia mais
Chilly Calais
30 de setembro de 2024, França ⋅ 🌬 16 °C
Warmly installed on a site, 40mph winds outside after a day spent driving through fog then rain. Gin, risotto and wine to come inside our cosy van.
The last of the gin...

A pre-lunch drink empties the bottle.
Home to Hereford
1 de outubro de 2024, Inglaterra ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
Back home after three days of driving in the rain and, finally, some very annoying diversions round the bumpy lanes of Gloucestershire and Herefordshire. It was worth it- we had a wonderful month.
