At last, we are actually loading our motorhome for the first leg of our european tour. We are members of every motorhome association we can find, have full recovery insurance anywhere in Europe, and two Satnavs, in case one fails, map books, tourist and campsite guides and feel sure we have covered every eventuality.
We intend to comment on the sites we visit, give mileages, prices of petrol and eating out, post photographs of monuments visited with details of facilities. As we have never done anything like this before, we hope we can be of use to anyone else contemplating such a tour.
I have a special interest in sacred art and architecture, and we are both keen anglers with a deep love for different landscapes. I shall also sample all the local wines in the areas through which we travel, in the hope of learning a little of the wines of Spain and Portugal.
We shall use paragraph headings, so those of you not interested in the subject covered can skip it.

Hello Cissy and Michael,
It sounds lovely, you are certainly craming in some stuff.
Know what you mean about the Portugese wine, still there is always port?! We have woken up to a foot of snow, I am charging my camera intending to take loads of photos. It looks beautiful. Louie and Beena have out and can't work it out - priceless!
Don't want to keep texting you as I know its expensive, though would love to chat. Is Nog OK? How was her Florida trip?
We are off to Ste Maxime on wednesday with the girls, its 19 degrees at the moment so looking forward to it.
Much Love,
AVril

Interested to read that you will be 'tasting the regional wines' how very kind of you! How very thorough!
Anyway, have a fabulous time, let us know when you are in our Cote de Provence region and we will try and meet up
Love Avril xx
