Another update from our French holiday



Hi all - I've been getting all my holiday snaps on the computer (finally!) to show you all 😊

This is just to say that we had a lovely time, very relaxing and the scenery was spectacular. Would highly recommend this type of trip (canal boating) to anyone 😊 Hope you enjoy!

We went swimming on this part of the beach, with these beautiful villas in the background (we were leaving port when this was taken)

How lovely was she!! She got us about with no hassle and had everything the discerning canal boater could want.

Well, you\'d think swimming in this would be lovely, until you see the swarms of jelly fish in the water :( however some of the others, including Kelly braved the sticky little creatures

This was an every morning occurance, us trying to find a boulangerie and the locals trying to understand our hand gestures ... this street wasn't looking too promising though

This town was my favourite - the town centre was so lovely and the old church looked like it had come straight from the inquisition era - very striking to see this lit up at night.
