We've left Pamplona. It's hard to believe that it's only been a few days. In that time we had a 5 hour drive down to Mataro where we'll be setting up home in September. After a couple of days there and dropping off a lot of our possessions, we headed up into France. Another 5 hour drive saw us just to the north of Toulouse and a further 4 hours today brought us to Poitiers.

Now Sunday evenings were never going to be very lively. Nevertheless we drove down into town and parked up near the Botanical Gardens. From there we walked into the centre which is really quite nice. It was beautiful walking around but everything was closed, except for some very expensive bars on the central square and a couple of North African restaurants. We went to a cheap Tunisian place where the harissa was very spicy and brought back many memories. It's just a shame they had no couscous tonight.

So, like I said, not much to report but a nice wander around. Enjoy the photos! Hopefully there will be more to tell you about Futuroscope after our visit tomorrow.
