A nice break

On Tuesday we arrived in Rouen, France, to stay with friends. It has been a nice relaxing break for us...proper bed, showers and hot food!! And Vic, the labradour to play with :) We visited Rouen city centre on Wednesday, a lovely old city with cobbled streets and old buildings, and sampled the local pancakes and flan.
Yesterday we drove along part of the northern coast of Normandy from Dieppe to Etretat. The scenery was amazing and most of the land uninhabited.
Unfortunately we are leaving today to continue our journey. We have been fortunate this week with places to stay. Gaby's sister Dom and her boyfriend Jon are visiting Paris this weekend (our next stop) where Jon's family home is and they have offered us a bed for the night :) (thanks guys!) so we won't be at a loss again just yet!
