Autumn 2026

We cancelled the trip that would have taken us to the Cathargo Malibu factory at Aulendorf mostly due to the weather and that we have a 16yo dog. 

He was really not coping with the overly hot weather in June. No one expected to be 1300m above aea level and it being 36°C!!

The email to Eurotunnel wasn't as productive as I had hoped. 

We could change the date of travel but... the year you can book in is from when the ticket was bought not from when you are booked to travel.

I booked the crossing on January 16th. So if we change the date we'd have to travel before then. It's not that great a deal.

Hopefully, the weather will start to revert to normal and we can still go in September.  To cancel would lose us over £300.

We will have to source breakdown cover for the van and travel insurance for us and of course, repatriation for Reggie.

Where to go? Germany still? Or stay more local in France.

I had thought of maybe Alcossebre again!!!!

Let's see what September brings.
