Saturday 1 May to Monday 3 May. Valbonne, near Nice

The campervan is ensconced once again in its natural habitat, a driveway. While I am ensconced once again in mine, a house. Thank you Kat and Christoph! Three days of white sheets, gastronomic and bacchanalian delights. Three days of mediaeval hilltop villages with shops declaring the proprieter within to be a pretentious tosser, sorry, I mean 'Soap Maker and Philosopher.' Three days of stimulating conversation and the distractions of the Cote d'Azur. Then back to that *&**%$* caravan with an engine.
