      Many thanks Jeffrey 😁 this one is the Mini 3 Pro - the 4 wasn’t around when I jumped in to the drone world - been great fun getting to know it. I want to get it following us some Alpine roads later this year when I trust myself!! 😁☀️☀️

      I agree, I've had the mini 4 for a couple of months now, and I can say, they are almost idiot proof, ( myself included ) with all the obstacle avoidance sensors, active tracking, homepoint button, 😂😊

    Hi Rob and Nicky
    A big Hello from a fellow Tenbyite!
    Now exiled and living in Worcestershire near my Son and his family.
    Just wanted to say how much Kim and I enjoy your channel, very informative detailed, so much so that we have decided to follow in your footsteps on some of your routes!
    This May to June we are going to follow your Verdun gorge pathway. We visited lake Annecy and lake Geneva last year but didn’t spend enough time in Annecy.
    This year we will head South first, traverse South of France then head up to Isle de rai and La Rochelle, where we have booked a week on Isle de Rai in late June.
    We love France and can not wait to get going again this year. Keep up the vlogs, they are brilliant, and when I am home again and your Motorhome is in your drive, I will give you a knock?
    Best wishes for your travels this year and beyond
    Peter, Kim and Bentley (Our old English sheepdog)👍🚐

      Hi Peter, Kim and of course Bentley,
      Thank you so much for your message and for travelling along with us, much appreciated 😍
      There are so many stunning areas in France and beyond and you will certainly love the Gorge and of course those West coast areas.
      Of course you’re always welcome to look us up for a Tenby catch up when you’re next ‘home’.
      Enjoy your travels and our thanks again 👍🚌☀️

    Lovely time you both are having I can’t wait to retire. I’ve been in the wars since November after a fall and still being treated. Not life-threatening. Enjoy watching your videos. Keep going.

      Oh no Wiggy. 😬I do hope it’s all mending ok that didn’t sound good if it happened in Nov.
      Perhaps it was a sign to tell you to retire!!!
      Thanks as always Wiggy and get well soonest! Sending healing vibes 🤞☀️🚌

    Enjoying your videos. How long did it take to get to Bordeaux? We have 8 nights in May but ferry to Calais and are thinking of heading to Bordeaux. 😊 Thanks

    • @motorhomingadventures
      @motorhomingadventures  9 місяців тому +1

      Many thanks Saf and Andy and good to have you along :)
      From Calais it’s around 500 miles. We use an average 50mph which includes stops/lunch etc so around 10 hrs if you paid on the motorways and I’d say 12 to 13 hours if you avoided motorways.
      We did Calais to Morzine in the Alps in two days which is the furthest we’ve done in a short time - 600 miles with one overnight stop at 300.
      I don’t mind driving at all so found that fairly easy so you could certainly do that with one stop halfway or even in a single day if you hit Calais early and didn’t mind a long day in the saddle! 😀🚌🚌☀️
      Hope that helps 😀

    Very good - we're looking at this site or possibly the Huttopia one, which is closer to centre ville. Gujans Mestras is about 30 mins bike ride away from central Arcachon, I believe?

    • @motorhomingadventures
      @motorhomingadventures  Рік тому

      Thanks BigAlB and yes Huttopia is much closer. It was full when we were travelling as we weren’t booking in advance. Bike ride from Gujan about 7 miles to the centre of town - or of course the bus or train if you stayed further out near Gujan.
      There were also a couple of sites down near the Dune de Pilat which looked nice as we scootered by - they are being rebuilt after a big forest fire a few years back so the facilities looked all new and those dunes have a huge network of cycle tracks. The Lac Cazeau was really nice too - lovely warm water and some great sheltered sandy spots down near Plage Maguide to escape the often breezy Atlantic coast. You’ll love it down there ☀️☀️🚌

    You obviously love your bikes and boats, myself included , boat, and drone, have you still got your other UA-cam channel about boats,

    • @motorhomingadventures

      We do love bikes and boats Jeffrey. Bikes most of my adult life with a couple of gaps!
      Yes Powerboating Adventures is still running - in fact I must put up the La Rochelle boat show films we did - there were some fabulous Jeanneaus there we wanted to add to the channel. 😁
