After a relaxed breakfast in the hotel, we leisurely pack up our stuff and loaded the car, my heart slowly sinking as I realise this is the last day. All being well we will be home tonight, although it will be during the early hours ( 03:30 I expect ). It's a beautiful morning in Dijon and by the time we set off it's approaching midday and its 21 degrees. We fuel up the car just down the road from the hotel ready for today's 612 miles home. The satnav takes us a...

This morning we found that it had been raining again during the night. After checking out of the hotel and reloading the car we had a walk down into Perpignan City Centre. At first we looked for a cafe or bakery to get a little breakfast, but were shocked to find Kabab take aways still open and they seemed to be busy. Don't know if they stayed open 24 hours???

Now this is the part of the holiday that I liked. If we were travelling by plane, in 6 hours time we would be home and the holiday would all be over...

So a dog walk was decided upon, as we prepared ourselves to go the sun popped out, resulting in it being to hot and humid for the...

Today's my birthday & its a first, being aboard on my special day. After being rudely awakened by the maids and desperately trying to cover my bits before they barged in! LoL. It was time to open my cards and after sun creaming up we went to Merlins for Brunch. I had my first pint of the day to wash it down with. It was then a day around the pool, as always we couldn't resist the water slides and we managed to persuade Vicky to join in the fun. I couldn't re...
