Driving continued -it was absolute carnage....

Benjamin happened to be in the front seat with me this time. The cars were all over the place. We just couldn't seem to find a way through, and there were crashes all around us. OK, we were on the dodgems. Bordeaux for three days and the highlight of the kids holiday is probably now the fair (not the churches, walks, gardens, shops, museums, towns). I have never seen Benjamin laugh so much as when he was in control of a dodgems car. The people around didn't stand a chance. Naomi was more than happy to let her careful father driver take the wheel and smash everyone.

Bordeaux has been a wet experience - hasn't really stopped raining. But we still managed to get to see the gardens, museums, shops, cafes, and we had our first French McDonalds - for those interested the main difference is that you get a dessert With a kids happy meal.

We move on today to Arachan today - home of europe's largest sand dune - let's hope the rain stops.

Some photos to enjoy.....

If you look carefully, you can see benjamin and Naomi at the top....





Self explanatory, she didn't stand a chance.
