15th May 2009 - Into the Rhone-Alps

We continued north and were now venturing into Rhone Alp land. The scenery at once became both dramatic and beautiful. Known as the Lake District we were treated to some truly stunning scenery.

Our trip to Nantua and its beautiful lake was where we met our first ‘British friends’. Hi to Maggi and Clive if you are reading and thanks for the offer of a shower! It was great to speak to them and exchange our first experiences with people who had enjoyed their motorhome for a similar period of time but who had been very adventurous with a trip to Morocco during their first year!

We loved Nantua and this area and again we are certain to make this another trip for the future, spending a little more time instead of long travel every day which we were doing this time. So we finished the day overlooking the lake with a lovely bit of steak – sheer bliss
