We vowed never to do this again…

‘This’ being two holidays so close together. But, sometimes, you just don’t learn from experience.

It seems fitting to sail from Portsmouth to France on D-Day although, from the comfort of Brittany Ferries, we can’t imagine what it was like 80 years ago.

We are travelling to France for, what has become, our annual Inntravel walking holiday with Jacky and Ken. Our plan includes stops at Oradour sur Glane, a village destroyed by Nazis 4 days after D-Day, and Carentan where The Longest Yarn is on display. More about that when we get there. In between we have 6 days walking in the Dordogne and a visit to John’s friend Bunny who moved to France 8 years ago.

Rumour has it that the weather in the Dordogne is the worst in 40 years!

One thought on “We vowed never to do this again…”

  1. We are looking forward to seeing/meeting you! I remember last meeting John, for only about an hour, in Luton on my way home after a skiing holiday. No idea when, but definitely before 2004, when I left London.

    Can’t promise anything on the weather front – people here are saying that this spring has been the worst in 40 years! However, it is warming up, and we’ve had 3 days of sunshine this week! 🤞

    Safe travels & à bientôt
