The Missing Wockies

Where's the Wockies Worldtour
Hi everyone, yes we are still alive but have had limited internet coverage and a crazy travelling schedule since leaving Spain a month ago.
Craig has posted photos of Cannes and Monte-Carlo which we drove through on our way to Italy. Both places were beautiful, with plenty of Ferrari, Maserati and Lamborghini spotting to keep the boys mesmerised, and a drive through the Monaco F1 street circuit in the very sporty Peugeot van was memorable. Craig and I were also speechless at the boats moored in Cannes and Monaco, toys of the rich and famous. We stayed at a beautiful, yet surprisingly cheap hotel right on the beach just outside Monte-Carlo two weeks ago. From there we headed across the border to Italy, spending our first night in La Spezia and driving through the CInqe Terra area the next day. Wow!!!!!!! The coastal drive was like something out of a James Bond movie (including the crazy driving scenes). We stopped for lunch in the little seaside village of Telorio and after walking through ancient, cobbled streets found ourselves standing at the edge of the Mediterranean. Again six Wockies were speechless it was more beautiful than any of us could have imagined, so we postponed further plans for the days and baked on the rocks and the kids took a dip in the rock pools.
From there we headed to Pisa, Rome, Assisi, Florence and Venice. We will add photos for these places along with blogs from the boys at our next stop.

  1. My goodness, you have been busy little Wock stars. Monte Carlo looks amazing.When are you due to do your cruise?
    We finally have some fine weather, but it is really cold here. Make the most of the warmth.
    Miss you all. Keep having a blast and I'll keep reading. xx Jen
