7 – 8 December 2018 Folkestone/Tournon sur Rhone

Up early to catch the train. Main motorway blocked but managed to get to the terminal in plenty of time.     Motorway down to Geraudot very wet and windy all the way from Calais. 5 hour drive. Very tiring. On arrival at the campsite bumped into our first person that we knew – wardens from Bristol Wharf campsite who we also met in Vilanova last year.

Not a bad drive down to Tournon, weather OK but held up by the ‘yellow jackets’. They had managed to close a 300 kilometre stretch of motorway which led to much frustration finding an alternative route, not just for us but the many wagon drivers. It made our 4.5 hour journey into 7 hours. Even on our arrival at Tournon they were trying to block the motorway exit and created problems on most roundabouts. Arghhhhhhh!
