As we’ve enjoyed the ride reports and travel info from so many of you tossers, I thought that I’d keep my own little journal of our recent trip down through France, a few weeks after G (Summerland) got his first GS! Hope you enjoy it.
(As far as I can make out, I can't insert images at the appropriate point in the text, so I will split this into a separate post for each day of the trip.)
Day 1 – Friday 23rd March
Blatting down from Yorkshire to the Channel Tunnel, a further two hours or so on the French side down the A26 brought us to our stop for the night. We had treated ourselves to a posh “chambres d’hote” at Danizy (Domaine le Parc) and it was indeed fabulous. Lovely room, superb four course dinner and a comfy berth for the GS in one of their several outbuildings (tight squeeze past the shrubbery and up the stone step!). A great find, reasonably close to Calais, run by friendly Dutch people.
