Driving in France - at this time of year anyway - is a real pleasure. Today I covered about 600 miles from Brittany to the Basque country, and am less stressed than by a typical trip from Naas to Dublin. It would be nice to linger in some of the towns I could see beyond the vineyards, but I'm even more keen to get to Africa.
Tonight Biarritz feels very off season, but the Youth Hostel (I'm minding the budget!) is livened up by a school group singing I Will Survive at full volume. Tomorrow looking forward to the coast road to San Sebastian and Bilbao.
