Another holiday booked?!



As you may have realised by now, we expect problems booking holidays. What is more we usually run into them.

Having had such a good, reinvigorating time in Italy, we’ve decided to try to book a second holiday for later this year, in France this time.

Over the weekend we sought a pleasing hotel in Burgundy, around Beaune. Most were the sort of place that is fine for an overnight stop, a couple of days even, but not a full week, let alone a fortnight. None of those that appealed for a longer stay had available rooms for such a long period at the time of year when we’re hoping to go.

So yesterday, we decided to turn our attention to the idea of a gîte in the south of France. We made a shortlist of half a dozen possibles.

This morning I rang up to get extra access info before possibly booking. Imagine my amazement when the first place I tried seems to be good. They’re going to check with the owners first to make absolutely sure but all looks good.

I can’t quite believe it! I’m now trying not to let myself get too excited in case they ring back with some problem. It’s just going so easy! Too easy, perhaps!
