Drew and Louie on tour (lots of dog photos!)

[BooBooKing]

Wow!! What an amazing picture of your boys and the sunset!! Brilliant!

 

[Louie25]

Another day of rain, albeit light rain. Had a walk about Confolens this morning and a longer walk this afternoon to Chateau de St Germain de Confolens.

A wee bit further west today to Bignac. Roasting (hot to a Scot anyway!) this afternoon
Here are a couple of hot dogs

 

[Louie25]

Not much happening today, just relaxing with short dog walks and letting them have a swim in the river.
Reading a good book called the Nightingale. Hiding in the shade today as my spring time sun rash has appeared and is driving me mad with itchiness

 

[Louie25]

Couple of big black otters in the water today

 

[BooBooKing]

Lovely otters there! Are you finding France to be dog friendly-ie cafes and restaurants? Can you take them in any attractions or are you having to do things one at a time? We'd like to go abroad with our dog but she has separation anxiety so we don't leave her alone in the van. I'd be interested to know how you are finding the French react to your dogs.

We have taken our dogs to France 5-6 times now over the past few years. It’s so much more relaxed here I find! They’ve been in cable cars, glaciers, chateau gardens! Beaches don’t seem to allow them in the summer months.
We don’t really go to restaurants etc as we usually like to eat in the MH.
We do get a few people admiring the dogs but not many! Most folk seem to ignore them! They had a walk round a large Brocante this morning, indoors and out, no problem.
This most recent trip, the most stressful part was getting the dogs paperwork in order!!
We also nearly always use the tunnel too as we can remain in the MH with the dogs.
Give it a go!

Not much signal here at Camping du Vieux Chateau in Rauzan.

 

[BooBooKing]

I can't imagine how anyone could ignore such beauties! I'll definitely give France a go with my dog, thanks.

 

[Louie25]

Now at a tiny site at Le Moulin de Saint Laurent. Arrived in the rain, walked the boys alongside the Canal du Midi. Saw (what we thought were) two cranes in a field?
Rain forecast for tomorrow too ️

 

[Louie25]

Visited Vianne and Nerac today, after a Frenchman and Dutchman helped push our Motorhome out of a very wet pitch!! It rained all evening and night.

 

[Louie25]

Moved on today (after being pushed out of the last pitch again ). Now in Moissac.
Lovely walk along the river and onto the canal aqueduct and path into town.

Walk around Moissac this morning. Visited Saint-Pierre abbey and another walk along the canal des Deux Mers.

 

[Louie25]

Yesterday was a complete write off due to the rain! Non stop for 21 hours it’s what I would expect in Oban, not the south of France!!
Here’s a wee photo of Louie chilling tonight

 

[Reallyretired]

We're getting a great tan here in Eastbourne, wall to wall blue skies all day today though more cloud forecast tomorrow and we may even get some rain, first for about 3 weeks. Still envy you being in France though, hopefully we may make it later next month.

We are hopeful the weather is about to change for the better
Hope you manage a trip and get the sun

 

[Louie25]

Some sunshine finally!!

[Louie25]

Carcassonne today, hard to get decent photos when you are up at it.

Hello boys, this is Honey, she’s nearly 9 months old

We’ve all just driven through France - went through the tunnel early last Friday - and are currently half way down Italy, heading for Ancona on Friday.
We’re loving seeing the pictures of your photogenic boys enjoying their holiday. You inspired Honey to start her own thread about her trip!

The Adventures of Honey Hound

Hello everyone My name is Honey and my humans tell me I am going on a Big Adventure with them - starting today! I will be doing lots of things I’ve never done before because I’m only 8 months old, but they have done them many times so I know everything will be fine. Apparently we will be...

We are now at a site in Gruissan, very thorough check in, required both of our names and dates of birth and also first time we’ve ever been asked to produce the dogs vaccination cards. She even asked for the dogs names!
Drew and Louie had a swim in the Med this morning, too hot this afternoon to have them out.

 

[Louie25]

Walk round Gruissan Lac this morning. Saw lots of Flamingos which I thought was amazing!
Drew wasn’t up for posing today so here is Louie,

Off inland again tomorrow, the mosquitoes here are loving our fresh Scottish blood

 

[Louie25]

Early morning walk up to the Barberousse Tower in Gruissan.

 

[Louie25]

Circular walk round rural Fontes this morning. Very quiet, lots of wild flowers and birdsong

 

[Louie25]

Arrived in Millau yesterday. Wifi and 4G slow or not at all!

If you look closely you can see the famous bridge in the background.
