Saturday 19th July- Wow the sun is shining

We noticed that the couple that we had spoken to earlier in the day who said they were leaving at 0800 on Saturday were still here at 0930 when we got up. It would appear that that have enjoyed this site visit and so decided to spend yet another day.

Our day was relaxing really. Jen did the washing in the morning and Noel read his book. The afternoon comprised of a swim, our first swim since arriving here, and it was great and we spent about 90 minutes swimming and enjoying the sun. The pool was quite empty as is most of the site although an ominous number of reservation signs have arrived particularly for August.

We spent some time looking into route planning for our return, we need to book some camp sites as it’s getting to the busy season and so we really need to book. We have found two locations just North of Limoges which look quite good and so have emailed for reservation. This location will allow us on the Saturday to get within striking distance of Le Havre for the final days drive.

In the evening the couple, who had decided to stay another night joined us for a drink after dinner and we had a great evening talking about past life changing events and camping experiences. Perhaps too much wine may have been consumed as there were at least three dead bottles when I got up this morning. Anyway it was a great evening.
