Today the satnav said it was 11 hours drive to Cherbourg, and we drove all day and the sat nav still says 9 hours. How do we do that?

We didn’t do much other that drive either. We stopped at a LIDL for supplies, and had a two hour nap somewhere, but that was about it.

But we did find a really nice free spot to camp. It’s just on the outskirts of a town and it overlooks farmland. And there are flushing toilets with seats on! And we’re the only ones here! It’s great.

And, I’m loving that it is so much cooler. Still 30 degrees, but that feels like bliss. We were able to sit out in the full sun and not swelter

And in the night it actually got cold. It was 27 degrees in the van when we went to bed around 10pm, but in the night I was actually reaching for a blanket. It was lovely! But… the temperates are creeping up again on the weekend and 38 is forecast again for Monday. So we ain’t sticking around!
