    Nothing set in concrete as yet, but I strongly suspect a 2 week camping trip early June, and similar again early September, will make up the bulk of our 2024 holiday plans.  Looking at somewhere new (to us), and have one eye on the Alsace region, and half an eye on Lake Annecy.
    The problem with that is that our son and his new bride are based on the opposite side (Les Landes) (when he's not over in Ukraine de-mining) so we may change plans to meet up with them.  
    That's the beauty of such camping trips... nothing needs to be booked other than La Shuttle... and even that can soon be amended with ease.

    Annecy huh? Camped there last summer, me and the missus. Stayed at Le Solitaire Du Lac, great campsite and direct access to the lake for swimming, water is surprisingly warm but it was touching 40 degrees when we went.

    The drive to Chamonix is super picturesque if you fancy a day trip to see Mont Blanc. You can even get a train to Geneva which I'm told is also picturesque but we didn't do that.

     

    Alsace we did 4 years ago, also fantastic scenery and beautiful towns/villages, very germanic. We stayed near Colmar, in Eguisheim. Some stunning old places around there like Riquewehr.  Close to Freiburg and Basle as well. Freiburg was lovely and they have Park and Ride.

     

    I'm sure you'll have a great time, wherever you go. 

    We are off to New York end of April and then our camping trip is planned for San Remo in July.

    Correlation doesn't necessarily mean causation...but first weekend the scrutineering clamps down on flexible aero devices red bull struggling all weekend and kicked out of Q2.

    Hummmmm...........

    Mercedes had a mare in Singapore as well in 2015 for no apparent reason.

    Horner has said the TD hasn't affected them.

    Maybe it just is one of those odd tracks.
