Thank you Teresa ❤️

As someone who is originaly from Mimizan and now living in the UK, I would definitely recommend coming back in between June and September to appreciate the town. It is very lovely with daily indoors market, weekly outdoor one, beautiful weather and lots to eat and drink. If/when you go back, should try to drive to Lespecier (still in Mimizan, just a bit out) and truly witness how wild and untouched the area can get. Great walks for the dog too 😊

Thanks so much for the info. It sounds excellent 👍😀😎

[@touringtroughtons]

Thanks for showing us the Aire location , we travelled this route before and said we would love to stop in Mimizan. What a lovely place and the beach is amazing. Thank you.

[@TheHappyTravellers]

Glad you enjoyed it! Yes Mimizan is a place we'd like to spend a bit more time in :)

I love them Aires the camping car park . We use them all the time now when we are in France 🇫🇷

[@TheHappyTravellers]

Hey Although they cost a bit it’s good to have the ability to book them 👍😀😎

Hi Steve and Wendy, my you did get a lot of rain, the walk to the village was a nice 15 minutes walk. Nice shops and the pastries and bread looked yummy. The sea and beach looked stunning. A pleasant stop over for a couple of days x Julie and Tony x

[@TheHappyTravellers]

Glad you enjoyed it 👍😀😎

[@Mistydazzle]

My goodness! Beautiful location! This area, with its tall pine trees and long, flat sandy beach, looks just like the SE USA. There are/were tall pine forests from East Texas all the way to the Atlantic seaboard, including Northern Florida. And, you no doubt would be able to find beer, crepes, surf & nick-nack shops! 😉 Looking forward to more of your travel.

[@TheHappyTravellers]

Glad you enjoyed it, it’s certainly a place we want to revisit 👍😀😎

Hi, we're playing catch up on your vids and hoping to find some good info for our return to the UK from Spain towards the end of Feb, up through France and across from Caen to Portsmouth. When we worked in the Loire Valley we saw the water level markers up the sides of the valleys and they have had some unbelievable volumes of water in the past. Safe travels M.

[@TheHappyTravellers]

Have a great trip back. The rain in Loire Valley is one of the reasons it’s famous for good wine 👍😀😎 There is always an upside 😜

[@rogerbixley6911]

Hallo Wendy Steve and Pippin. Since I have been following your travels..I mentioned that in your last video, you have always had pippin...she must be getting on in years now. Stay well and stay safe

[@TheHappyTravellers]

Little Pippin is now 9 years old. 👍😀😎

Hi what a lovely place, the beach looked a bit like Mablethorpe. What lovely seaside shops, shame they weren’t open. Bon Voyage 👍Rgds Richard

[@TheHappyTravellers]

Yes a beautiful place, Kenys bar was great!

[@stellaswancounselling]

Excellent you are going south to get warm we are heading north to get away from the heat lol. ❤

[@TheHappyTravellers]

Hey Stella, hope things are all good. Nice to hear from you 👍😀😎

[@vanscran1672]

Hopefully I'll be following the same route or similar, in three weeks time, I would have preferred going a month earlier to miss the bad weather but not possible, we need some sun. 🌞☀️🌞🌞👍👍👍

[@TheHappyTravellers]

It’s great getting away from the cold weather and we love the culture here in Spain 👍😀😎

[@wanderingwaspiwoman]

Hi. Haven't seen you in a long time. Do you still have your boat?

[@TheHappyTravellers]

Hi, thanks for commenting. Yes we still have the boat but prefer the winter sun in Spain.

[@wanderingwaspiwoman]

Ah you are so wise. We are thinking of same thing now.

[@johnferris2527]

Steve, been watching your motor home blogs before you settled in a canal boat. In your recent motor home blogs I think you've put on weight. Better go easy on processed flour products like bread and pastries which contain huge amount of sugar. Avoid confronting a big cardio vascular event. And switch to peppermint tea unlike popular English tea; tastes much better and has health benefits. That storm from the Atlantic is hitting Dublin at this time.

[@TheHappyTravellers]

Hey John Thanks for the health tips. I have to agree with you about the weight. I’m on it now to try again to drop some weight 👍😀😎

[@dianasmith8428]

Which rally are you aiming for

[@TheHappyTravellers]

It’s the Caravan and Motorhome Club rally at Alannia Resort Costa Blanca. The site is excellent and the rally very good 👍😀😎
