Didnt have your mobile Nigel and we didnt really have much of a plan when we hit Calais other than the Land Rover party in Spain so were just winging it.

Heading for the Med coast tomoz so hopefully the weather will improve Cool

Are you not going in to Andorra now? Or is it a day or two on the beach and then a couple of days in Andorra?

Just arrived at Orleans having driven down from Arras via Rouen (to avoid Paris). Got out of the Sport and couldn't find my wallet. Last time out of the car was four hours before at fuel stop. Thought I was going to have to phone the petrol station and hope someone had handed it in. Big search found the wallet down the side of the seat. Didn't see it on first search. Heart in mouth moment! Need a beer or three now... 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Prob leaving here late tomoz to hit Andorra mid afternoon Wayne for a few days. Glad you found your wallet, there is nothing worse than that moment of frantic searching Shocked

Woke up this morning in Millau and everything was soaked, tent and awning dripping wet and super foggy with heavy dew. Got packed up and headed south in search of the sunshine. Arrived on the Med coast to a 27 degrees in a great campsite in Vias. Got set up to dry everything out Rolling Eyes

A few pics leaving Millau Thumbs Up

Yes, huge panic followed by immense relief! A very nice bottle of vin blanc this evening has definitely soothed the nerves! Whistle

Photos look fab. You've picked some great spots. Thumbs Up However soggy camp stuff does sound a bit tedious. Hopefully you've managed to dry everything out now. Thumbs Up

I suppose I should do my own trip thread really. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Up early to catch the sunrise on the Med sea beach next to the campsite, breakfast and packed up. Headed for Andorra avoiding the Tolls over the hump.

We arrived at concrete city that is Andorra and cannot wait to leave!! Our campsite resembles what would have been a public carpark and i now need to straighten 10 tent pegs Rolling Eyes Big Cry

Went out for dinner tonight and drowning sorrows with vino we couldn't even be bothered to unpack Cadac or chairs & Awning!!

On the plus side 83 cent per litre for fuel so i will wedge it in the morning before we make our escape to the mountains!

I agree about Andorra La Vella, it's an awful place, but has very cheap fuel, very cheap alcohol! And lots if electronics etc are cheaper also.
Campsites there are pretty crap and right by the roads, we tend to stay just a little outside, maybe only three miles out of the main town. Yet much better campsite next to a small golf course. Thumbs Up Bodsys Brake Bible

Left Andorra mid morning after some tax free shopping. Decided to take the smugglers offroad route down the mountains and into Spain. We were well within our allowances not that it would of mattered as we didnt see anyone official allday. Whistle

Nice little suprise in a place called Tor in the form of an old settlement and house with a bar!! Superb day of scenery and not to taxing offroad. Now pitched on a campsite on the Spanish side of the border with Andorra. Anyway heres the pics of today's adventures

Normal service has resumed, now out of the Pyreness and further east in Spain with the mountains in the background, thought we would treat ourselves to a proper double bed for the night before we head to the Land Rover Party in Les Comes tomorrow so went & got a 2 person shed Laughing Rolling with laughter

See these huge vultures on the way down the mountains Shocked

Great pic's, keep 'em coming.

We drove from Santander across the Pyrenees to the Med in July, and stopped off in Andorra for a night. We felt pretty much the same as the other comments on this thread about it. Whistle
