Crowded..

Covering 30,000 square meters, the ‘Dead Sea’ indoor water park in Sichuan province is said to be the largest in China. They let it accommodate up to ten thousand visitors at once. I think that is a bit unsafe, rubber rafts or not.

Stavoren

Tweak it till it hurts ;-)

Just at home and direct a super nice day at the local lake. Water is way warmer than that cold ocean in Portugal. What a difference!! The perfect way to unpack the car and "wash" al that salt/sand from the gear

Erik testing the boom ;-)

Linda in the sun. She made all other pics. Thanx!!

Doggy happy searching the local rabbits again

A desert that suits the day perfectly. Fresh homemade waffle with ice and fresh fruits

Home sweet home

Back home! Had a great trip, but it's always nice to come home.

The weather (read: al the rain) turned the garden almost into a miniature jungle.

And I like it!

All the people I spoke complained about the bad weather/all the rain/cold I missed...

Hmmm, well on arrival it was warm and sunny. So ready for some outside food ;-)

Mexicali steez. Something I missed for a month

Garden is full of flowers

The salad

Stuff that fills the stomach.

And now the best thing...

It's sunny, warm and ... WINDY!

So no needs to unpack the car. Time to go straight to the local waters!

South west France

So, after some superb time in the mountains we're back in France. Avoiding the crowded (madhouse, cause all the frenchies got holiday!) South-West coast, we kept on driving over the small inland/B-roads.

After a while we came in the Bordeaux-wine grape fields area. Here we followed the wine-castle route ;-)). The wine test route.

In the evening we found a very nice, clean place to rest/sleep. A small lake in a forrest.

A nice welcome in the heat.

Unbelievable.. Such a nice place and no one around

Doggy paradise

Time to sleep under the stars again

The beauty of the Pyrenees
