We spotted loads of MX5's while travelling across the UK. Not so many here in the Continent yet though.

Well Steve, we travelled thru the UK and we're now in Chalon-sur-Saône in France. I am a big MotoGP fan so we are thinking of, maybe, heading to Tavullia in Italy to watch the Italian race. It being Valentino Rossi's home town and all. But we have no definitive plan really. Except to avoid rain !
This is us in the small VW at Rosslare....no priority boarding for us !!

Nice trip! Shure it would be rude not to go to the race ;-) You could take in Annecy on the way too ...

ha, brilliant! Gorgeous spot, worth renting a speed boat for a few hours and heading up the lake :-)
Its not Le belvédère campsite by any chance?

Is that the municipal site, up on the hill ? We are in Camping Aloua which is quite close to the lake. I've always stayed in this site as the others are nearly always full ! What's the other site like ?
Still no MX5s to be seen here yet.....

Ooooh..... Annecy - really like it there. Took the MX5 there before, on a camping trip. It was a tight squeeze, considering I packed a car cover as well, cos i knew it would be parked under trees (no really, what was i thinking!!!).

Sounds like a great trip - and if you can take in a RACE, t'would be rude not to.

It's fine, all the basics were decent. Not sure what it is like now but the view was worth staying there for. It might be worth a trip up to check it out.
