Well here it finally is, the last week of the first 6 months of travelling. Wow it has come around so fast! Also, a huge delay in getting this post out, as many of you will already know we have been rather busy once we got back to the U....
Wow, we’ve gotten up to quite a bit and travelled a fair old way these last two weeks! Leaving Arbois we headed east through the Jura forests and along the border with Switzerland. Travelling through the winding countryside, we noticed a large flat plain far below us through the ...

First off, this is actually almost two weeks' worth to follow. We've spent some time with family for a few days and then I've been having a bit of a mental health struggle when trying to write just the first week. So apologies and hopefully I have trimmed ...
