Update from France!

I am going to send some very brief updates from my pda with the basics of what we are doing. Pls excuse the bad spelling & abbreviations! We'll then use this as a reminder later to do the full update with pics and all. We made our way from Frankfurt across to France. On the way stopped in Kaiser Slautern, great festivel in full swing! Arrived in Epernay in the champagne region. Weather was 20 but very wet. We arrived at Moet & Chandon for a tour looking like drowned rats!

Then drove to Villers Bretteneaux (sp!) and visited the australian war memorial. Next to the Loire valley. Lots of wine tasting, good food, divine little towns to drive & cycle through. Saw famous chateau Chenenceau.

Today we dropped in on Le Tour, rarely have I seen Joel so excited,like a little kid! Saw them all wizz past, tres cool. Will catch them again on the Alps. Now on way to Royan, a costal town recommended by Sam. Next is bordeaux. Our motorhome is awesome, v comfy and well kitted out. Stayed last night on a property with a chateau surrounded by vines on 3 sides. Amazing. More updates soon. Ryan how's coobs?
