Benefits of driving.

Whilst 2 days with a 6 and 2.5 year old in a car from Switzerland may have many downsides. But if we'd flown I wouldn't have been able to stock up on champagne at Reims.

Did a second bit of booze shopping at Calais before getting on the train, and our little wine cellar is almost fully replenished.

It's been a bloody tiring 2 days and looking forward to 2 chilling days before our morning balloon flight on Saturday.

I'll also try and catch up with all your journals now that I'm home.
