Now that's more like our holiday weather. It's raining!

A dull, grey morning with frequent rain showers, though still quite warm. There's not a lot to keep us here so plotted in a route to take us north again but going a slightly different way than we've done in the past.

Roundabout Art - Pont D'Eveque

So avoiding the autoroute we crossed Pegasus Bridge then through the delightful town of Pont L'Eveque, studiously not noticing the weight limit signs - hmm a bit tight here......... Nowhere to park unfortunately, besides which it was pouring down again so we continued and crossed the Seine at Pont de Tancarville, which neither of us have seen before. Impressive enough but still no match for Pont de Normandie (but it's cheaper!)

Aiming to stay on reasonable roads our next aiming point was the coastal town of Fecamp and as it was lunchtime, the rain was showing signs of abating and there was a space, we parked at the marina-side aire along with the rest of the French motor-homing community.

And that's where we stayed. The weather looks like it's drying up, it looks to be a pleasant spot so we may go and explore later. Good WiFi connection here so got the opportunity to bore our many (well one or two) blog-watchers again.
