Default Euro road-trip

Well I finally did it I went on a (semi)planned road trip through Europe... the initial idea was to take a 4 day trip and take in the Millau Bridge and region. After looking at bits and bobs we decided to forgo Millau this year and ended up plumping for Southern Germany, a proposed trip of some 1,700 miles in a week.

Well the idea was good if a little optimistic on the mileage front - we actually ended up doing 2,500 miles in a week and had a real blast doing so.

Took a few pictures en-route so hopefully you peeps on here will find them interesting/fun.


07.30 ferry time - horrible time in the morning and the mood isn't helped by the equal worst meal of the trip

After that it's off to the Swiss Alps for a little drive through the Furka Pass and an encounter with a glacier (or as I seemed to think - the world's largest popsicle!).
