Travel Day

Google maps got it wrong. Our twelve hour day turned into an ardious 17 hours. Fifteen people ordering coffee and needing subsequent potty stops takes up more time than we expected. It was a beautiful drive from Lisieux in northern France to Italy but it was very slow going. The trailor we are pulling in the 11 seat van creeps along safely but at a snail's pace. It's hard not to have speed envy when the fast Italian cars whiz by, zipping around the Alps with little effort. Our drivers, Tim and Perry, deserve extra credit for such a hard day. One of our scenic rewards was tunneling under Mount Blanc.

Here's a shot of David the camera man - who rarely gets HIS photo taken!
