signposted and straightforward until you hit the DIVERSION - TRAVAUX...we only had to reverse back up a slip road once before we got onto the autoroute in the right direction. Around here if you get on the wrong road you end up in the wrong country! But pretty easy nonetheless (we didnt end up divorced so it cant be too bad).
Went to the Australian memorial at Villers Bretonneux and then on to Normandy. We discovered why the cottage was empty for this week...big French holiday this weekend and huge traffic jams, no one who knows any better was going to France this weekend. Enormous traffic jams crossing the Seine and in Normandy around Caen.
All worth it once we found the cottage beautiful old stone farmhouse (really creaky stairs) in the middle of nowhere. Had cats and a pool so the kids were happy.
Sunday was a rest day and we walked to the local village for croissants and had a quiet day.
