Welcome to Paris!

Thu, 22 Sep 2011 | By braynroni | Views [635]

This morning we enjoyed not being in a rush. Got up a wee bit later, caught up on some internet stuff and did a big load of washing (much required by this point!).   Grabbed an apple for breakfast then headed off in search of the train station. A ... Read more >

Wed, 21 Sep 2011 | By braynroni | Views [511]

We were out of bread so Roni got up early and went on a baguette mish this morning. Success! Fresh peaches also purchased and an ATM located. The baguette was still warm – yum! Home to make brekkie then Roni went to use the net until Bray emerged. ... Read more >

Roni OWNS the road

Tue, 20 Sep 2011 | By braynroni | Views [544]

Roni was up with the birds and mist this morning – excited to see our location as we had arrived well after dark last night. The mountains towered above us, green fields all around and plenty of snow visible. After hot showers we struck camp quickly ... Read more >

We packed out in the early morning hoping to hit the road and get moving. Had a coffee at our campsite while we awaited the office staff in order to settle up and set out. Headed to the beach at Sestri Levante to get some sun and coastline with our ... Read more >

A Taste of France - Clafoutis

Mon, 19 Sep 2011 | By connectlocally | Views [4048]

The first time I tasted clafoutis was during my summer failure as an au pair. I was barely 18 and had been placed in—to put it mildly—the middle of nowhere. I had already spent a summer in rural Provence, so I thought I knew the drill: cycle to ... Read more >

We awoke in the clouds this morning! Struck camp and drove through the THICK mist to a town nearby called St Fortunade. Here we purchased fresh bread (and a sweet treat) from the patisserie before making a cuppa and enjoying breakfast in the historic ... Read more >

Decision Day

Mon, 12 Sep 2011 | By braynroni | Views [366]

This morning Roni got up, showered, dressed and returned to the campsite just as rain was coming. We struck the tent lightning fast and threw everything in the back of the car just before the rain came down – whew! Bray got clean and dressed then we ... Read more >

Skipper joins the crew

Sun, 11 Sep 2011 | By braynroni | Views [443]

We struck camp early and headed toward La Rochelle in the misty dawn. Spotted a Brocante fair in Cozes on the way and stopped to peruse the stalls. Were sorely tempted by a full croquet set for 15Euro but resisted the temptation and left there with ... Read more >

Sat, 10 Sep 2011 | By braynroni | Views [627]

As I write this Bray is sitting next to me finishing off our 1Euro23 bottle of Bordeaux...straight out of the bottle as we have no glasses – all class! Today was a good day. Much exploring done this morning and a quiet campsite by new water to ... Read more >

Finding France

Nicole was researching the Mallo lineage when she ran into the first Lintz to marry into it.   On Thursday she took us to the towns where these ancestors of Connie and Ron’s (remember Ron?   This is all being done for him!) lived.   And died.... Read more >

Beyond Borders

Thu, 1 Sep 2011 | By braynroni | Views [484]

This morning Roni was up with the birds and pottered around in the welcome coolness of the morning (SUCH a change not to be sweating from the get go!) until Bray emerged. On the road again relatively quickly and heading North to France.... Read more >
