Joe and I hot footed it into Uzes early doors for The Saturday Market. The Gomersons had been disappointed in the few stalls on Wednesday but today was a seriously large market. Breakfast was aRead more

Really this was just meant as a family record of the holiday rather than a blog. We won't be going far. Tiger and I headed for the Pont du Gard whilst others were poolside or enjoying Uzes.
EnjoyedRead more

Tiger, Biffy and I head off for Aigues Mort pretty early. We arrive at the same time as half of France but manage to squeeze in Car Park 4. We sample some splendid ice cream- my raisins were full ofRead more
Hazel and Ted's Journeys A marvellous day out by all accounts-I note that Joe the Juice always manages to include an ice cream stop!

3.50am our bedroom door opens. It's meg- did we hear the loud bang and noise downstairs? Julian had switched the light on but wanted back up before he went downstairs. We had a look around but allRead more

Unpleasant experience! Had a similar experience in Ibiza 2003. Attempted break-in at a villa we were staying in. Probably hasn't done much for your anxiety levels Margaret!

It's Sunday. We were going to have a picnic at Green Parc today but suspected that the French were big weekend picnickers and took a rain check. However to be prepared ,and as supplies were runningRead more

Indeed yes he's back again. The electric has now gone off. The boys are concerned about the meat mountain in the freezer. The babies are sweating. And I was going to make a nice cup of tea to calmRead more

I am settling into French life. We had lunch outside and then coffee in the square. I took lots of photos around town, it's hard to choose only 3 for the blog! The duchy is like an old castle withRead more

We went to a lolly factory!!! Gramps came too. There was a cool museum and huge shop at the Haribo Factory near where we are staying in Uzes. It's where they make gummy bears! We got to make our ownRead more
Zoe Hamilton Oh wow! That's very cool! Have you read Charlie and the Chocolate Factory? Was it like that?
Ross McIntyre Hi Sam, Ruby and gang, great to see a few new things, especially the lolly factory, gummy crocs and teddy bears, woo hoo! I hope they sold bags of snakes as well.

Nannie is better again today but her throat is too swollen to get the tube out yet. It may be a couple of days yet. I can't wait to see her again.
Today all the school kids in Uzes dressed up inRead more
Andrew Slutzkin Hi Sam and Ruby and Mum & Dad - finally an old bloke like me has logged into your amazing trip around the world. Heather & I have read about Nannie being really ill, but getting better now, which is GOOD news. Way over the other side of the world, in Melbourne is where we are still, and a bit jealous that you're all (mostly) having fun in Uzes. A LONG time ago I learned French at school, and I can still speak a bit m- but when I do, and french people babble back to me in French, I'm not very good at understanding them!
Andrew Slutzkin And, by the way, our Sam and Ben went with their Dad Julian to see "Shaun le mouton" here in Melbourne a few days ago, and Sam laughed so much that everyone in the cinema turned round to look at him!! Love to Mum and Dad too, happy travels
Hi Sam, Ruby, Barb & Doug - I've finally been able to look at your blog (sometimes I'm a bit slow with computers) after Tracey told me about your nannie - I'm glad she's feeling better and hopefully she'll be able to see you soon. Looks like you're having a great time in France, it's one of my favourite places in the whole world, probably because I like cheese so much :-) Anyway now that I've found your website I'll keep checking it, sending lots of good wishes from Melbourne, au reviour for now x Deb W

The garden wasn't exciting for me but I liked climbing the tower. It was a prison tower with very very thick walks. There was graffiti from mediaeval times! Amazing... Mostly religious graffiti. HopeRead more
