Paris

The drive to Millet de Foret which is about one hour South of Paris had one highlight. Our SatNav advised there were substantial delays ahead and I decided to take a quicker route. We ended up in the middle of a market with traffic all around us hooting and carrying on – all good fun but progress was not too rapid as it took almost 20 minutes to negotiate one roundabout. Still no one wanted to argue with a rig of our size!

The caravan site was wonderfully wooded – here Tieve is relaxing and appears perplexed as to what all the fuss was about in erecting a simple awning and annexes.

We spent a day in Paris. After driving to the centre we parked near Pont Neuf and walked to Notre Dame.


We then had a little lunch. It was quite cool but that was soon to change.


We then did a double decker bus trip to see the sights. Seren sat at the front but was more interested in the people on the bus than the architecture.

We travelled around the Place de la Concorde which also gave us a preview to the Eiffel Tower where we hopped off.

Glen and Lianne decided they would walk up while Helen and I looked after the girls. The start of such an event is an ice cream.


followed by a little snooze….

However, despite a late return, after a good rest it does not matter how late it is in the evening Tieve is up for helping Gran in the kitchen.
