Left the Loire valley Monday AM and headed SE on the fab French motorway system- my bipper worked well and good time made.
Had aimed at a coffee/ fuel stop 25 kms SE of Grenoble
Walked into Autogrill and spotted a familiar face

Wow your trip to CLM looks a lot more civilised than ours! Roughing it in Beausejour. I spent most of Saturday in the ACO too, would have been great to have met you.

Have fun with Sir Ian!

Traffic much heavier than expected- but finally cleared it all at Digne Les Bains and enjoyed this fabulous road - stopped for coffe near Sisterin and
a snack lunch just North of Castellane
