1982 - Provence with Daniel
We put our bikes on a rack on top of the car and were off. The first day we got as far as Zurich. The next day we were in Bollène near Orange where we left the car. Our cycle took us to Orange, Avignon, Pont du Gard, St. Gilles, Aigues Mortes. Le-Grau-du-Roi, and finally the Mediterranean. After a couple of days at the beach we continued on to Arles, Les Baux, St. Remy, Cavaillon. When it started to rain, we got the train back to Bollène. The car was still there!
This trip didn't have the same sparkle as our first one. Maybe our route wasn't as interesting, it was August and hot and humid, there were more tourists about. Although I like France well enough, I am partial to Italy. Perhaps it was the Italian ambiente that I missed.

How Daniel and I managed to get the bikes on top of the car I don't know!
Not sure where this was - Orange perhaps. I finally got that mop of hair cut off. And it looks like I am wearing cycling shorts now.

Farmyard camping with the geese and ducks, but also swarms of mosquitoes.
