With thanks to Priscilla and Rupert for a warm welcome on Ile de Re, where they’re burning their 90-day Brexit you-can-stay-in-the-EU-per-half-year allowance in one go, we’ve trundled 320km+ gently south beyond La Rochelle heading towards Bordeaux.
The French remain delightfully welcoming, the weather is behaving itself as are our ancient legs and Daisy2 too, so we’re well set for the coming weeks round the bottom of France (sadly deciding after all to miss out on Spain) and back up the other side.
No sweeping, profound thoughts about Ukraine, Climate Change, Brexit, Life, so pictures as ever tell the story, with captions explaining just a bit why they’re in. Hope you enjoy, though probably not as much as we are doing…
