We leave Épernay on the N51 to Reims, then round Reims on the A4 and A26. We then follow the A26 to the A2 and on into Belgium where the road name changes to the A7.
The last part of the trip from Épernay on the A7 was uneventful, until we went to go into a service area but took a wrong turn and ended up at a large supermarket, saved us having to look for one. The van was only half full of beer so we needed more. In the supermarket I could not concentrate to work out the prising system, so we went for some food from the slowest, fast food restaurant in the world, a McDonalds. Back in the shop I soon fathomed out their pricing system, and found many new beers, also some buy so many pack and get free glass offers. Was supposed to get cigs for a friend but defiantly could not work that one out.

The site is in the back of beyond and was just about empty of tourers, so we had the choice of anywhere in the field.
I asked at reception if there was a bar or restaurant near by and was given directions to the village. I set off on the bike to see if it was in walking distance, well I never did find a village with a bar or restaurant and gave up. We managed to trip the electrics (hairdryer & kettle) for first time but as the site was empty, I just swapped to another outlet and it was a long walk to reception. We spent our last night drinking in the van and although it had been very hot during the day, the evening was rather cold.
I wish I could say more about the area but we weren't there long and there was nothing to photo.
