Trip going well

Currently in Venice!

Alps pictures to come but they are on the DSLR so that will need to wait until I get home.

Next stop Florence!

Very scary moment! I don't even let my wife drive the zed yet I've just handed my keys to the valet! He looks 12!#!#!

I'll be closely inspecting the mileage and the bodywork on return.

Saying that, apparently they usually deal with Ferrari's and Lamborghini's so I don't think they'll be too impressed with a zed.

Great to see your having a great time , I did a similar trip in May and June but ...... We camped ! ....with a roadster ! !

Have you seen the Verdon yet ? I see you mentioned you were going there , and if your able the Ardeche is also worth a visit if you have time , Vallon Pont D' Arc is good to head for , especially if you drive down the road from St Martin D' Ardeche , it's a 30km road that runs high above the Ardeche river giving great driving and spectacular views .

Enjoy and savour every moment , I can't wait to do it all again .

Still alive, so is the zed and the honeymoon seems to be going well too! Currently in Clermont-Ferrand having a few cocktails as you do.

Next stop, oradour-sur-glane via the national park.

It's been a superb trip so far and the zed has been faultless (famous last words!!). I will do a decent blog/thread when I'm back in blighty so I can get the DSLR pictures rather than the crappy phone ones.

Enjoy yourselves and speak soon!

Last stop before we come home (sad times, I wish we could stay). The blog will cover all this when done but in the meantime, LOOK! The zed got priority parking out the front even in this swanky place. They obviously know class when they see it!

I'm back! What a road trip! The car has been faultless (sort of) and definitely well worth it. Getting back into the daily grind but I'll post up a blog when I've got all of the pictures off of the DSLR.

Even got a wave from a foreign zed on the way to Montpelier!

Zed love transcends nations and nationalities so a foreign wave should be no surprise. DO post up the pics - it all helps current and future members get ideas about where to go, where to stop and the like - provided marriage is not a pre-requisite!! Looking forward to seeing some of your snaps. I've canoed down the Ardeche but not been in that region since the Millau bridge was constructed. I absolutely loved the Pont du Gard and have covered Venice, Florence and the surroundings so, if nothing else, it'll be a trip down memory lane for me...

It was epic and thoroughly enjoyable. I've got about 4K pictures to sort through but then I'll post a write up.

Sounds great - can't wait to see the pics
