Voie Vert

Heippa all,

Quite some time has passed and no texts have appeared on the blog. From one simple reason - we havent beer traveling anywhere. Nojoo, we came to Finland for the Christmas to spend some time there, and it was truly nice. Big kiitos for all you who took us to sleep or spend time on your sofas. It was super nice to see you all <3 And sorry for the ones who we didnt have time to meet. Next time then ;o)

But now we have been spending the last few days traveling a bit. Not around the world yet, but around the French countryside and especially Charente and Gironde. By bike! We went last Friday with our C.Car to Brunos grandmas palce in Sy Hilaire de Barbezieux where we left the car to spend the winter. We had our bikes with us as usual, and on Saturday after eating lunch with grandma we jumped on our bikes and drove for four hours and 50km to Angouleme to spend the evening with Brunos friends Clement and Alexandra.

The landscape was lovely, the sun was shining and it was really nice to bike along all the small countryside roads which went though small villages, wineyards and fields of Charente. Lovely!The day after the way back to grandmas place was somewhat more though since after all the first days biking at least i was a bit tired from the legs, but anyhow the sun was still shining and the view was nice.

On Monday after lunch again we started biking to Laruscade to Chris' and Isas place, which was just perfectly placed on half way between Barbezieux and Bordeaux. And that was suhch a nice +50km ride aswell, since most of the way was called Voie Vert, which means Green Way, and it is an old steam train track that has been transfered as a biking and hiking road. Jubii, still nice view but no tough up and down hills. And then yesterday after breakfast we biked the last part home to Talence. So atleast it was a small trip and worth to write here i think =) Unfortunetly i didnt have my camera with me, so no pics this time =/

And also i can now tell that we really havent buried the idea about flying around the world, but it just seems impossible to be in a good contact with Finnair to be able to fix some nice Round The World flights. Now after over three weeks of exchanging mails with the lady in the customer service we are closer than ever in actually getting the bloody flights... But lets see, the last nail hasnt been hit in the coffin yet, as they say in Finland... I will let u all know as soon as the flights are in our pockets =)

Untill then!
