- 2 Weeks in Southern France
Its almost a week now since we returned from Southern France and I have been procrastinating over writing an entry. Why? Well mainly because there seemed so much to write about and rather than biting it off one step at Posted by Estebaan in Reis van de Nautilidae | Jul 30, 2008

We actually did something organised yesterday! - We went with a guide from the Office de Tourism on a walk through the Luberon hills to look at the old ochre mines. Good value too! - 4 Euros each. You can Posted by Dodgey in Farewell Peckham | Aug 1, 2008
- I am the worst procrastinator
For years, I would go on vacation and forget to bring the nail clippers. Normally not a problem, unless the vacation lasted around two weeks and then suddenly you are searching for that little device to get your nails back Posted by decuirrl in a long-winded carte postale | Jul 30, 2008
- Lunch in Villars
Well, just a miniscule update really. I've done a long post below regarding camping, but that is aimed at the general public (linked from a travel website) though you might find it interesting.

- A Week (or two) in Provence
Our last couple of days in Arles we spent sight seeing in the town itself. They have a very impressive Roman ampitheater, though there is local debate on whether it is being over-restored or not. I'm of the opinion that Posted by Dodgey in Farewell Peckham | Jul 27, 2008
- More Castles
Carcassonne is impressive. A huge walled city. A giant castle if you like.
We had a good walk around the ramparts, the main castle inside, and the cathedral. Lots of “fact boards” to read – though I think there is Posted by Dodgey in Farewell Peckham | Jul 22, 2008

Who said Friday the 13th was an unlucky day? For me, it was the day I would return to Paris, can’t get much luckier than that! Not such an early start out of Seoul, arrived in good time to check Posted by scottg in Scott's Adventures | Jul 21, 2008

Before leaving the UK we joined France Passion, an initiative of French winemakers and farmers allowing campervans to stay on farms and vineyards for free.

Our last morning in Paris, and as we looked out the apartment window to the view below, we saw rows upon rows of market stalls that had been set up for the day. Our host Caroline had mentioned these markets Posted by joshtracey in Josh & Tracey's Adventures | Jul 18, 2008
