European Tour Part 6 - We make it to the Med

Part 6 of our European motorhome tour – and this one is all about the journey. 🚐🇫🇷

We leave Villefranche-sur-Saône and point the motorhome south, heading for the Mediterranean coast. This is a proper road trip day — plenty of chat from the driving seat, changing scenery, motorway aires, toll booths, and a few moments of… interesting French driving!

We pass through the vast city of Lyon, taking it all in from the cab, stop at several motorway aires, and slowly watch the weather improve as we head south.

By the end of the day, we roll into Grau-du-Roi Camping-Car Park aire, park up right by the sea, and finally arrive in Mediterranean sunshine. This episode really shows that sometimes it’s not about the destination — it’s about getting there.
With poor mobile reception , Starlink proves to be an absolute godsend, keeping us connected when everything else fails.
