We’re dragging our heels a bit now. During week two our central door (the main one we use for in and out) decided to open, but not fully close. We have an appointment on 1st June with a dealer a little further south to see if he can fix it. Doesn’t sound much of a big deal, does it? But the central door step is about about a foot lower than the two cab doors. Even higher if we have to prop the wheels up on uneven ground. If we can’t get it fixed, then Mary-Ann will either have to start growing a beard, or master the art of grappling ropes. Doing both of course would fit in nicely with our traveling circus.
In the meantime we’ve moved on to a really beautiful little site at Pont-les-Moulins , 2K from Baumes-les-Dames.
We’re not in. We’re out on our bikes again. Some hilly uphills taking the long route. Joyfully rewarded with a huge downhill to the river Doubs and a fabulous flat run home. After a riverside sarnie of course.
We’re sort of adopting a similar pattern. Park up. Bikes out. Scoot out. Move on.
So we scoot-mobile out the following day to visit a brilliant outdoor historic houses museum. A bit like the Weald & Downland one in Sussex. But better. Now we can make better sense of all the beautiful farm house conversions we pass. Should have taken some photos of the houses at this point, but got side tracked.
All very pretty . . .
If you’ve got to the bottom of this page then you’ll be wondering why something weird hasn’t happened by now. So were we. We’re on a hat-trick!
Scoot allows us to get right up into the hills (almost mountains) to visit a pretty waterfall and then onto a glacier cave for Mary-Ann to do a bit of cat-walking at sub-zero temperature.
Lovely to hear how you are getting on over there. In the UK, I always think that a ‘blue’ crop is linseed … which is the same plant as flax…
I’m feeling virtuous as I have just come in from an hour’s gardening …well …filling the garden waste wheelie bin actually!
Love
