Early start this morninga nd the tunnel was busy. Tgen got to france to see it raining! Rained for about 2 half hours then cleared and got hotter the further south we got. The roof box has been magic. Did 110 at one point and it held no worries. although it does slow the car down a bit. Finally arrived at the f1 in des voyages where we drilled hole s in my bonnet rob and we are now off to the grill bar where we gave rob a ride in a shopping trolley and i tindered some local meat.
:lol:
Tomorrow is voyges mountains and black forest.
Sweating my tits off at tge minute and just off for a shower... Car ran well no problems at all.
Update tomorrow... :P

Sounds like our trip, started with rain but got better. If you get a chance visit Merano in the Italian tyrol just the other side of the Dolomites, great little town with many eateries and loads to do. Safe trip you two and enjoy.

Sorry guys... Had so much fun yesterday and was knackered didnt post up. Had a great day today. Stopped in st moritz. Then had lunch in a town where a festival was going on...a band that got half naked and jumped in the pool whilst playing there instruments. Todays passes over the mountains where off the scale good. Fluela pass is probably my favourite pass ive ever done...i remeber it from last year and today ot was just as good. 8-)
The livigno tunnel and the lakeside half tunnels are immense... We stopped 70 miles short of the 270 mile full days route in a campsite in swizterland called Boomerang....cars been faultless apart from spitting some oil from the dipstick to block section. Used 1 litre in 3 days so not bad.
Laura has always wanted to go to lake Como, so ive had 2 days of twisties and passes so know its time for a day or two at her leisure. So we are heading 60 mile south to Verrana in lake como... Of weathers good we are camping if not then a hotel.
You know youve got the right mrs of she says... "Ive prefered the ravioli out of the tin at tye campsite then the 80 euro restaurant meal yesterday... So lake como campsite and ravioli here we come.. :lol:
Having a great time and taking things easy and really enjoying the 5 countries weve visited so far in 3 days... :D
