Back home after a short break

I needed a break so this week, being a short holiday in some Universities in Lyon, I made the most of it and went away. I took the camper - which is having a few problems at the moment:
  • I need to change the water pump, so there was no running water
  • I need to change the switch on the shower - although as there was no running water this didn't matter too much
  • I need to have the gas looked at, as neither the fridge nor the cooker is working
  • I need to change the only bulb which is difficult to get to!
But despite all of this we had a good time. OK hot water was boiled up on the second stove and then poured using a cup over myself to wash but the heating worked so it was warm and we could cook. 

Anyway, Nîmes was good then we went to a small fishing village and I mean just that, it is still a small village: Niolon, France. 


Then we went to Callelongue, just near Marseille


We looked up and thought it might be an idea to go up the moutain to the 3 caves

Going up on the yellow trail was not that easy!

Hope you enjoyed your little trip!
