The 3 blondes and Brunette Tour - update

We had fun !
The trip was a success and we would deffo do it again.
It took a little longer to get there due to air traffic control in France showing off and then my father had a problem with the exhaust on his car so he brought the little spare car which doesn't have the best suspension in the world - after taking the 1st corner the back end of the car was scraping the floor ! So one of the blonde's and myself took a bus and 2 trains to get to our destination arriving 4 hours after the other 2 but it was worth it, my mother had prepared a beautiful lunch and served some very chilled Rose wine which went down very well !

The weather could have been kinder, although the sun did shine for us everyday it also went behind a few clouds quite a lot. One evening we had a lovely meal on the terrace and consumed quite a lot of the local wine and stayed up chatting until very late 2 of the blonde's went off to bed but my travelling companion and i stayed up to watch a most spectacular storm with full thunder and everything - at one point i thought the other 2 would appear with their teddy bears and that i would have to sing "raindrops on roses" just like Maria in The Sound of Music but no they slept right through it ( i blame the wine )

The area we travelled to is sooo beautiful and is such a relaxing place to stay .... i recommend it to everyone.
