We have spent the last few days in the area of Champagne in France where we have checked out the scenery which is very pretty and there are lots of chateaux and cathedrals to see. The beverage has lots of bubbles and tastes fantastic!
We have stayed in self catering accommodation so we could have a bit of room to move around (hotel rooms in Europe tend to be on the small side) and so we can do some cooking (restaurants are really good, but you do get a bit tired of eating out) and it has been very relaxing (have I mentioned how tiring travelling is?).
This might be our last post until we get to the US, as from today we will be staying in a little town in the hills just north of Paris and internet access is not so good. We will be in the US from September 2 and should be able to update and respond to emails then.
