Rain Rain Go Away.

We drove down to the South of France to try and hunt out some waves and some sunshine and so far we haven't had much luck! We have been gobbling up some yummy cereal though.

I like to mix these two together. The one on the left has dark chocolate in it and the one on the right has strawberries. The cereal is clusters of deliciousness! Yum!

It took us a few days to get down south. When we got to the South Western Coast of France there was a massive storm in action. The sea was heaving and the rain was having a riot. After one freezing and blustery night we decided to abandon France and try our luck in Spain where the accommodation was hopefully cheeper and the waves and wind more favorable. night  Below is a little town we drove through in Spain. 

Here is Steve with our cool new car.

We drove around the coast heading West until we reached Mundaka. Here is Steve contemplating the surf. Unfortunately in was a a case of "You should have been here this morning." We decided to go camping and tried out our new awesome pop up tent. You just through it up and it's erected! Then chuck a few pegs around the edge and Wala! You have a tent. We also got a cool bed that is an air bed with a cover on it and a duvet type thing that has clips around the edges so Steve can't nick the bedding in the night. Here he is checking the surf at Mundaka.

And here's a bit of Mundaka.

Here's our campsite.

And our tent and bed!

Steve taste-testing tea.

A little bird that came to visit us quite a bit.

We were getting a bit lonely after not really having anyone to talk to for ages and were missing A.J. and Jeff. It's hard when you can't just talk to randoms all the time. And super tricky to switch your brain from French to Spanish when you pretty much can't speak either language at all. We met 2 Auzzies (Nathan and Lisa) there who were camping too so that was cool. After Mundaka we drove back towards France.

We stopped for a night in Zarutz and camped on the hill. (Remember that campsite Bec, Tim, Chris, and Callan?)

Here I am up on top of the hill.

This is our campsite.

And the next day we drove back to France. We have been hiding from the weather in a little cabin and hanging out with our 2 new Auzzie mates Nathan and Lisa. Steve got drunk with them on Friday night and had a nasty as hangover all day on Saturday. Poor boy. Nathan cooked us up a yummy tea last night. Yum! Roast! And he made the nicest mushroom sauce. Mmmm. It's raining like crazy still so we are thinking of going inland for now and coming back to the coast at the end of our Europe leg. Missing all our friends. Love you guys! xoxo
