#france #motorhome #coulon
The Slaws are on their early summer holiday to France. They leave the île de Ré and head inland to Coulon in the Marais Poitevin. They pitch Helga their Hobby motorhome ‪@HobbyCaravan‬ at Flower Campings La Venise Verte. On the first night, would you believe it! There is a festival. The Slaws get down with the locals and enjoy local beer, music and a fantastic pyrotechnic display.
The next day they cycle into Coulon on their Raleigh Array e-bikes with Billy & Jessie travelling in style in their Trixie Trailer. The Slaws take a private ballade on the waterways, followed by a long leisurely lunch where Mrs Slaw is in heaven with cuisses de grenouille ❤️

You two are funny!!! You do what you’re told!! Basis of a great relationship. F1 or shopping???? F1 every time. Cool festival, the fire display was great. That boat ride was idyllic. Harry Potter junior did a good job!what a beautiful town. Wills wouldn’t try frogs legs in a million years either. I like them! France is so beautiful. Billy and Jessie stealing the show there. Wow love to come across hedgehogs. Pizza outside, perfect. Cheers 🍻

Another brilliant vlog....although having to clean out the shower traps must have been horrendous! Poor Mrs Slaw didn't look amused and we don't blame her. The pyrotechnics at the local festival was just mesmerising to watch and the wind in the willows canal ride was beautiful...shame we didn't see the beaver. There's no way Slaw was going to try the frogs legs😂 ...babe magnets don't eat such things😉 we agree with Slaw when he says Mrs Slaw sounds French...we reckon the French themselves would agree. Jessie's eye at the end looked sore bless her...thank goodness she's OK now. Looking forward to the next episode already. Take care❤

Great vlog as usual. One thing that I love about France is the plethora of cultural events that exist from village saint "fête" to opera concert in the courtyard of the local "mairie". Such experiences are supported and encouraged, and the locals are happier for it. One would wonder why the French are always complaining, but then again, maybe they have all this because they complain when they're not fully satisfied.
