Congratulations to Rapido for putting the toilet and sink next to each other, ideal when you're not in good fettle. With Brian being somewhat 'pre-occupied' Rachel has been doing all the work (as usual) and due to circs beyond our control we did 4 sites yesterday! We thought it was going to have to be FIVE sites when we rolled up, it didn't look good we arrived in the middle of a wedding! We think the overworked receptionist just wanted to get rid of us as quickly as possible, so we picked our pitch and were entertained until 4am with music and drunks.
Today thankfully, we have managed to get a shaded pitch on our first site, so we stay here and catch up on yesterday's paperwork.
Part of Saturday's trip included a drive over the Ballon d'Alsace, of Tour de France fame. Not only is it a mecca for cyclist but also the motorised version. Not all of the 'bikers' had grasped the concept that when you go around a left hand bend in the centre of the road at speed you head is on the other side. That may be fine but not when an 8'6" wide motorhome is coming the other way! Fortunately we escaped the race track without making any of the horsemen headless. Motorcyclists, I dunno, I must be getting old!
