Friday 17 June Aix le Bains to Bruere Ali champs Aire

 We travelled north- west from Aix Les Bains  for 5 hours in an attempt to find somewhere cooler 

We met Mike and Jackie at this shady Aire, near Bourges which is  en route to the coast (situated a  few km from Lac de Virlay, but no swimming allowed there😞)

 Mike and Jackie are from Ontario , Canadia and have been touring in their live - in RV for the last seven years  and have the stickers to prove it! They kindly showed us around their extremely spacious home with all mod cons, including a washing machine, an ice maker and air conditioning. Bliss !

Good to meet this friendly couple and hear about their extensive travels and adventures 🙂

Andy rigged up the outside shower outside the MH  so we could keep cool until the sun went down;  too weary to explore further afield tonight.


Our next drive tomorrow is 5 hours to the coast, 39C forecast for today again, so the coolest place for us  to be is in the van with air con on a whilst the engine is running.

An evening  Boules tournament was on nearby, the last revellers left at 2.45 am on Saturday morning, hopefully the champions 🙂

Slept really well from 5 am-8 am 


Mike and Jackie decided to stay in the area to attend a gospel concert on Saturday  that a friendly French woman invited us to go to, hope you make it Mike and Jackie, gospel is so engaging🙂
