Week Two - Our Arrival in Provence

Monday 24th June  2019

Up around 7 am, left Lyon at 10.15 with a clear blue sky and temperature of 27 degrees.

An uneventful if somewhat long journey of around 180 miles where the temperature continued to rise as the day wore on, being 33 degrees C on our arrival at 3pm.

First impressions of the site were that it was tired, dusty and a little unloved although, in its defence, we've seen many French sites like this, particularly down south where it's extremely hot.

We registered and found a pitch with a degree of shade and sun that we liked.  Again, to be fair, all the pitches were large and had water and mains electric available.

We were unsure whether we wanted to commit ourselves to 13 nights here but thought we would decide tomorrow.

Well, it was the showers and toilets that decided us.  No detail necessary, just to say they came well below our acceptable standards. Not unclean, but basic beyond belief. We will see yer man tomorrow.
