    Thanks for watching 👍 Saumer is one of Sue’s favourites, we were going to call in there on the way back from Spain last week but they had temporarily closed because of the level of the Loire 😳 Loche is on the radar for later in the year 👍

    Hi, thanks for watching and subscribing 👍 - The three main campsites we were at with Mike and Catherine were booked ahead as we wanted to make sure that we could get onto the sites together, and the Camping carpark we stayed at in Lion Sur Mer was also booked ahead, but apart from that we like to stay flexible and very often decide where the next stop is gong to be the night before (or even later) - for instance the Camping Carpark we are at tonight (Taillebourg Le Chateau) was decided on over a coffee this morning. we do like to choose somewhere as close as possible to something interesting, town, beach, castle, marina etc, and the Camping Carpark App, acsi App and google maps are great resources - recommendations from people met on sites are also very useful - hope that helps 😎🚍

    Super! We often stay at the free Aire at Montreuil-Bellay. You can buy their wine at the supermarket in town. It’s very good!

    Hi Guys, Great vlog, lots of interesting facts. We are off to France in 3 weeks time and will be copying your route backwards. Please could you let me know which motorway tag you have , as we have are having a trouble obtaining one, doesn't like our bank details when applying. Didn't have any problems with the Portuguese tag last year...
