One week to go

Thursday we left the comforts of St Remy and headed into Languedoc region. With one week to go it feels like our European travels are drawing to a close. We have set up in a tiny settlement called La Nautique, just east of Narbonne.

we pitched our tent late and were horrified to discover the campsite ground is hard as rock and with very little grass. Not only this but it is swarming with large mosquitos seemingly immune to our industrial strength repellant. The site comes with our own private toilet and shower (this is a first for us), however this had been left for some time and we found the snails and other small rodents had moved in. D gave it a good cleanbefore we felt safe to use it.

The night was a comfortable one though and the next day the sun shone and we relaxed in the surrounds. Later that evening as A was having her bath D was surprised by a little green head poking out of the drain pipe. 2 more green frogs joined the first before D decided it was all to much. So while A giggled to the sight & sounds of Mum chasing and killing mossies, David was able to negotiate a cabin for us down from 43 to 35.

So now you find us in a 'luxury' cabin comfortably away from mosquitoes with Alexa enjoying the freedom of the lounge floor to through her toys around and try to crawl towards. She has come on in leaps and bounds - but not yet crawling. She can still get around but is more of a shuffle.
