Pissos

Friday 18/05/19




Bokkie had a relaxing day in Le Teich while her travellers suffered with hay fever - the Spring winds have made it unbearable, especially for Toni.  We managed to get out in the afternoon for a long walk (Toni) and cycle (Andrew).

We were woken early on Friday morning (4am) with heavy rain and I was worried Bokkie might get stuck as we were parked on grass and I had reversed up the ramps, meaning I would have to drive forward onto the wet grass before reversing back out of the Aire.  I had read horror stories of how easily the heavy Hymers can get stuck and bogged down in wet grass fields but needn't have worried - Bokkie idled out with no problems.

We've moved inland and are doing a bit of a loop back to Bergerac so that we avoid Bordeaux's traffic and see some new areas.  The village we are in has a large gravel area behind the church that motorhomes can use and we thought we might be on our own but it filled up quickly in the evening.  It's a strange town - almost pretty and spread out over a large area.  The architecture is very different to what we have been used to but it looks rather neglected.

More rain forecast for Saturday so we'll keep moving.
