At 9am it was still quite hot to walk. But we did. All the way and down the rock cliffs to get to the village of Collioure.
Thank goodness it was such a pretty sea side village and well worth theもっと詳しく

Had so much fun today. Shopping for dinner, walk through a lovely village, relaxing nap around the pool after a delicious lunch and then the highlight, cooking dinner for the Markham’s.

旅行者Love the way Europeans can eat outside in the shade without the flys carrying away all the food and the mossies attacking all the people! Looks wonderful.
Just driving

Got out of Provence and heading north to find my rellies. A lot of driving. No sightseeing.
We stopped at a farm with an amazing grocery store. €5 for a pitch and €1.50 each to use the showers.もっと詳しく
In Champagne
2025年7月3日, フランス ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C
As I traced my French family, it brought us to Voillecomte in the Champagne district. Great to know where my drinking problem comes from. 😂
Anyhow…we spent a lovely day today heading out firstもっと詳しく
Brienne-Le-Chateau

There is a massive chateau here. Apparently visitors are only allowed four times a year. Not our lucky day.

After spending the morning in Wassy, we find ourselves close to the German, Belgian and Dutch borders.
Now Wassy was a treat. We were told by our camping host that there was a Menissier living inもっと詳しく
Crossed the border into Germany

A lovely drive down country roads to eventually cross the border into Germany.
If you weren’t watching Google maps you wouldn’t have realised you had actually driven across the border.

Paul picked a lovely route today to drive mostly down the Rhine. It wasn’t a very long drive, but we enjoyed every minute.

Another lovely drive mostly through countryside and along a lovely river. Just a few photos again
We stopped at another lovely farm which is in the ‘wilderness’. Two horses and lots of wheat!もっと詳しく
旅行者You will be unable to avoid crowds in Cairo that’s for sure! No time for a Nile cruise- a must in Cairo is the museum ( pay for a guide if able ) out to pyramids of course and the step pyramid the oldest one in different direction. Also a visit to the citadel. It will be stinking hot as in March it was very hot so no use doing too much outdoors. Traffic was horrendous all those years ago but being mid summer perhaps the streets may be quieter!! Perhaps you can do a half day Nile cruise to Edfu one of the ancient temples

Munster and nearly to Hamburg

Leisurely wake up to drive to Bergen to visit the place that Anne Frank and her mother were buried. An infinitely sad place. I visit to pray for the 1000s of souls buried there. It is NOT a touristもっと詳しく
旅行者Lovely photo of you two. Yes now Paul should read Ann Franks diary after seeing Bergen Belsen
旅行者What makes you think I haven’t read it… okay it was 40 years ago, but still quite a vivid memory, that’s also why I wanted to go to the memorial. Imagine the mass graves 500 bodies in a pit the size of a caravan. In a pit 3x the size was 5000 bodies. 50,000 bodies found, however the majority were cremated… so nobody knows just how many were killed. It was also a POW camp. Actually a huge site, would have been about 4km long. so solemn and heavy on the heart to think what humans can do to each other.

旅行者Danes must be good at remembering wartime. We visited a resistance museum in Copenhagen which was interesting too
旅行者You may have to take your head out of the sand Christine there’s always a possibility of war particularly in Europe so the more they know of past events the more prepared they are. Same applies here as well
