We had a close look at the prices and found them good but decided against joining you because of the short daylight hours. It is a lot of night driving. We looked into an extra day in Brugge too. I will keep my eyes peeled for a spring or summer trip because I know I would love to join a cavalcade of Zeds across N France.

Have a great time.

Had a good day, took a few photos but most were ruined by the low sun.

Just noticed the space number which may have had something to do with our reservation being messed up but it ended up cheaper and were on the 17th floor overlooking Paris so all good

France is fine although I think it has an aversion to Germany!!!! Glad to say since that event, it's been superbly well behaved :thumbsup:

Lille was beautiful yesterday, weather was amazing...never seen so many people in one place.....

Hats off to Liam. First time driving on the wrong side, and took to it easily :thumbsup:
