On 27th December 2007, after travelling round France, we finally moved in to our own French dream. As well as having the memoirs of our travels on the blog, it is also an ongoing account of our new life in France.

Hot in France
The weather is great and the pool is manic. It is currently over 30° here. We have found a great site where the kids would be happy in the pool all day. It has a great water slide and the kids have lost count of how many times they have been down it. Andrew is also in heaven as we have finally found wine country. For the wine connoiseurs amongst you we are in St Emilion. For those of you teetotallers, we are near Bordeaux. We have yet to visit a vineyard but hopefully that is not far off!
We are moving on to Angouleme tomorrow to a site owned by more English. This current site is made up of 30% Irish, 30% Netherlands, 30% English, 1 Danish and a handful of frogs. The Irish are currently trying to fight with the French over girlfriends!! Not sure who is going to win but is an interesting conversation when neither speaks the other language.
Sorry to say I cant put any pictures on today as I am on the site computer. I have, however, learned how to us a dodgy French keyboard!!!!
Speak soon. Lots of love, us. xxx
