SMALL PRIZE STILL ON OFFER

Re the previous blog entry Where to from here? one person had replied with a route through France:

Calais - Shopping for wine and celeriac rapee, maybe cheese
Normandy - Detour to eat at La Rapiere in Bayeux
Pays de la Loire - Chateau de Saumur. Wine Tour.
Poitou Charente - stay in a small place near Villebois la Vallette
Aquitaine - Musee Napoleon, 35kms south of Perigueux
Limousin - Arts Centre in Vassiviere (on an island in the lake)
Auvergne - Le Bistrot de Guillame in Moulins
Bourgogne - visit Chateau de Meursault and Cote de Nuits region. Taste wine!
Champagne - Chauvet of course
Isle de France - lunch at Chartier
Picardie - Amiens Cathedral, Chateau de Chantilly. Cream and Coffee!
Calais - Shopping for wine and celeriac rapee maybe cheese

This would involve a journey of some 1600 miles - The restaurants suggested are pretty good - the overall destinations are nearly right. Does anyone else have a view ? A bottle of Champagne is still on offer.
