2004, Day Twelve, Peronne

Day twelve 22nd June

Me, Dot, Nicole, Tim and the twins walk to visit to the WW1 museum in the Chateau de Péronne (Historial de la Grande Guerre, Museum of the Great War). The girls didn't actually walk, they can't do that yet, it would have been a better idea to visit without the twins but we got a reasonable look around before we had to give up and take the girls somewhere we could give them more attention.

After a short walk around outside the Chateau we head into town, outside the first bar we come to we find the others having a rest and a drink, so obviously we have to have a rest and a drink. Luckily there is a very good selection of beers on offer.

 

After a drink we wandered around the town centre looking in the shops and finished off with another couple of beers in yet another fine bar further down the street.

Back at the site it was now warm enough to have a dip in the pool, the pool is a quite good and well designed for a campsite this size, the sun was out, so we spent the rest of the day there.  Georgia and Emily enjoyed the pool a lot more than the last time in Houlgate.

It was over to the Nicole and Tim's log cabin to watch a film on the night (I think it was Shrek but I could be wrong), it was a bit of a squeeze to fit us all in but we managed.
