Evening all,
Next month is alfa jr’s second trip to the alps. Last year, he was young enough that we got most of the journey done as we always used to, with a few extra stops thrown in to let him crawl around and to change nappies etc.
This year, he’ll be nearly 2, so we need to do things a bit differently. From experience of going to Scotland etc, the best way for us is to drive for about 3-4 hours at a stretch, just after lunch – then he sleeps in his car seat!
So… we’re getting a Wednesday morning tunnel, and arriving in Chamonix on the Saturday morning ready for a week of riding and walking.
Can anyone recommend towns/campsites/hotels/lakes/country parks/things to do etc for us to break the journey down into bite sized chunks.
We’re after 3 stops with somewhere to stay (we’ll be in my T5 with poptop, so can do campsites or hotels) and at least a morning’s worth of toddler style entertainment. Ideally, we want the journey to be a valid part of our holiday; not just, y’know… a journey.
What can you suggest, all knowing STW?
Cheers,
Dave
