Vacances à Mimizan

After a drive of eight hours, including stops, through the wonderful mountainous terrain of Northern Spain and Southern France, here we are in Mimizan for a beach holiday. Pity about the rain.


Lunch time in España...


We wake up to clouds but the forecast for the next two days is good - and today proves ideal for a walk into Mimizan Plage. We were not sure what to expect - but a touristy place buzzing with restaurants in that French way wasn't it. It's perfect for our mini holiday and, over a lunch of moules frites and a carafe of white, we reflect that we've neglected France. We've missed this.


On the walk back to the 'van we spot a wild boar on the way to the beach - or the Tourist Office. Then a few more pop up. Vaguely worrying.


What a relaxing little 'holiday by the sea' this has been. 



But now it's time for the trip back to Calais with an overnighter on the way, probably at Le Mans again.....

Bye for now 👋
