I didnt think Driving round Paris was too bad although without a sat nav or road map and did get stupidly lost. Did you drive round the Arc de Triomphe roundabout, that was a giggle?

Nice trip :clap:

Liking the stonework on the country cottage, my kind of place. 8)

Must admit I quite like driving around Paris so long as it isn't raining, much prefer it to Rome or London.
