Bon jour! We have arrived in our fourth country, France! The Great European Road Trip is about to slow down a bit. And just in time, I think we were all about to die of sightseeing exhaustion (what a way to go though!). I'll give the update on the last week or so, but first what a place we have found ourselves in!

The drive from Barcelona to Alicante was lush and as we were driving through Valencia, full of orange groves. Today's drive through the Andalucia region was barren, rocky and colored by the silvery green of olive trees. We wer...
