Today we packed up in Paris and drove for the city of Luxembourg, keeping our fingers crossed that we had enough petrol to make it across the border. Thankfully we did just make it and we enjoyed saving about 20c per litre (but still ignoring its actual price in NZD!). I felt a bit lost when registering at the camping ground as I wasn't sure whether I should be speaking French or English. I tried French and after the guy heard me talk to Rebecca, he switched ...

After the slightly eventful previous evening we woke up a smidgen later than planned but got ready quickly and set off for DISNEYLAND!!!! Can you tell I was just a tad excited?! ;) The many car park attendants kindly directed us into our carpark ... one of millions it seemed. When we saw there were more empty spots than full parks we were pretty happy. After a rather epic walk we joined the queue for buying tickets. We first wandered down 'Main Street USA' bu...

After yesterdays epic adventures we decided not to set an alarm for today, but to get up when we felt we'd rested enough.

Unfortunately the gates were down on both the metro entrances and we were a f...

Once we finally dragged our carcases out of bed at the appalling time of 8.30ish and had packed up, we headed across the river to have a look around Avignon. Avignon is another pretty old town, with old walls, cobbled streets and a cool atmosphere with the pedestrian only roads and restaurant tables spilling out onto the streets. We're not all that keen on spending an entire day driving, so before we left home we decided to have a stopover somewhere between th...
