On Tuesday morning we will ride from Lille towards Limorges, depending on the distances we may well stop over night somewhere along the way! We are travelling on the motorbike together with our friends Jon and Trish! We will be staying for a few days in Limorges at our firends, Keith & Dorothy's home. We are so looking forward to it all! I am sure we will have fun!

I remember Limoges very well - we stopped at the porcelain factory and I bought myself a beautiful vase. My ABCW will be up later. Have fun and I'm looking forward to hearing all about it when you get back. :D

I am so envious. Have a fun, fun time in France and all along the way. Going by bike will be fantastic and you will get to see things in such a different way.
Looking forward to pictures on your return.

That's a very tribute paid to my country, Denise! I had not thought of that. :-))

I'd be so stiff riding a bike all that way! Good for you, it WILL be fun! And think of all the scenery you'll see along the way ... pity you can't take photos from the back of a bike!

Have a really lovely holiday Denise - I hope the weather is perfect for you.

Joy said...

We took that ferry trip last time visted France. If you are bypassing Antwerp take care as it is easy to find yourself going into the city, (which looked very interesting but busy). Of course I am easily confused by numbers and have no sense of direction so I am sure you will have no problem. We will be taking the ferry from Portsmouth in September because we are going west this year. Bon Voyage to you.
