France

France – wow!  It was so easy taking the Eurotunnel.  At the border they didn’t even look at our passports.

Got to France and it was still raining so decided to drive south a bit – avoiding Paris and because Daryl can’t as yet accept road tolls we took the scenic route.  That was a great decision as we got to see a lot of French countryside and villages

So we decided to go into Rouen, a BIG mistake, nearly fatal to our trip and Mildred’s head.  Tomtom sent us thru this street where we were told to take the two left lanes, they went into small tunnels then up to street level, back to tunnel, we were in the far left lane of 2, the tunnel heights kept getting lower, then we came to one the side 150m 1.9m – whoa!  We are at least 2.1m high – panic!!! – quickly push ourselves over 2 lanes – they were kind to us – maybe the NZ ovals and the NZ flag on our bum helped?  We fueled up and then got the hell out of Rouen before it ruined us.

Continuing to head south as want to outrun the rain.
