10. and 11. destination - Spain and France

in #travel7 years ago

Lovely Steemers!
One of our last destinations in our Europe roadtrip was Spain, France, Belgium and Netherlands. Last time I posted about Albany and Italy, and now I will post about Spain and France :)

We took ferry from Italy to Spain, we thought it would be easier and cheaper like we took the ferry from Greece to Italy, but NO! :D It took 24 hours to get to Barcelona from Rome and my fiancé and I cached a cold, because our small room has a very cold air condition. When we took the ferry from Greece to Italy, we did not need a room, and we thought we could do the same. We ended pay a lot of money to buy a cabin to sleep in.

Enough with the complain! Let´s start with some pictures from Spain :)

Because we cached cold, we decided just to enjoy the nice weather in the north of Spain, and I was not taking pictures.

After two days in Spain we drove to south of France.

we thought we should have a nice breakfast before we drove to our hotel :)

A picture from our hotel and you can see this incredible mountain.

Girona - The city we stayed in.
After a nice stay in Girona, we drove again to our next destination alpe d'huez :) BUT! the unfortunate happened! :D

Our car was dotted, haha :D Luckily we have roadside assistance and a mechanic picked us up.

The unlucky thing was that we already have booked a hotel in alpe d'huez and we could not cancelled it. We accepted the situation and try to be positive, as you can see in the video below.

We ended having a hotel in Best Western Hotel with swimmingpool outside and with nice staff. The city we stayed in was Grenoble.

Let me show you our pictures from Grenoble:

And we tried those tram lines up to Bastille (a small city in the mountains)

A crazy video from our hotel :D

It looks hard :D Trying to find out what we can see.

We saw a castle 1 hour with bus from our hotel - chateau de vizille!

After 8 days in Grenoble we drove again! :D IMG_3348.jpg

The first destination we drove to is alpe d'huez, and we stayed there couple of hours. You can see a video when we drove from alpe d'huez.

Our last destination in France was PARIS! Of course! we had to see Eiffel tower :D

Love your photos inuk! :)
So you can't have been far away from me then considering I live in Paris and have been out walking my usual route (Pantheon -> Notre Dame -> Louvre -> Arc de Triomphe -> Eiffel Tower -> Home) most sunny days ^^

I see I need to find the time for a bit of a Euro-trip with Paris as a starting point. Perhaps you could share the route and stops you took in a future post if you saved that in Google Maps or something?

Anyways, enjoyed your post! Steem on :)

Hi @fredrikaa Thank you so much!

Yes, sounds very close! I think I shared our roads in my first post. Here is the link ;)

I follow you and upvoted you ;)

Thanks for that! :) I must have missed your first post (perhaps linking previous posts in the series at the very end could help readers and also give you more traffic!).

Happy to have been following you too :) Hope we can mutually benefit from being connected on steemit! Looking forward to reading more posts from you as I get more active again following a little break from posting^^

Take care Sara!

Fredrik

Wow! yes, I have never thought of linking my previous post, I will do that from now on. :)
I also hope we can help each other! I will also read your posts.

Thank you Fredrik :)

Keep up your awesome work!

seriously? she's been abusing the voting system with her bf for months:
https://steemit.com/@steemik/comments
https://steemit.com/steemit/@simoneighties/welcome-bot-proxy-self-vote-abuse-in-introduceyourself
it sure helped pay for some good holidays, but if everyone behaved the same way this site would be f**ked.

Excuse me?
I don't know how I will abuse steemit? All of those experiences I have post about is true and my boyfriend Mikael have helped me to show to other people.
That is why I think steemit is become so depressing, you are trying to give postive things to people and hope you can give other people something and it ends that you are bad person or something.
I hope you will understand that I want everyone no harm and from now on I will post that @steemik are my boyfriend that helps me.

Hi Inuk,
nothing wrong with your posts, infact they are great!
However it has been your account's voting which has been exploiting the system by upvoting 100% your boyfriend's "Welcome" bot for months!
https://steemit.com/@steemik/comments
Those rewards are all upvotes from your account.
https://steemit.com/@inuk/curation-rewards
The blockchain doesn't lie.
It is possible that your boyfriend may have set up the bot without you knowing, but it is undeniable that the voting abuse went on for a long time.
If you don't believe that's exploiting the system we can ask @sherlockholmes to take a look at it.
I've seen the vote abuse stopped since I pointed it out, I think that's wise.
Of course you can still upvote your bf whenether you want, as long as it is genuine real comments.
Btw your travel posts are great. keep it up. I bet you'll get more rewards that way than with any exploits.
All the best
Simon

you know who your talking to right

yes, the 100% upvotes towards her bf's "Welcome" spambot were coming from her account.
That's what the blockchain says and noone can argue with that:
https://steemit.com/@steemik/comments
https://steemit.com/@inuk/curation-rewards
It is possible that it was all setup by her bf and she was not aware of it.
If that's the case she should have a word with her bf, and seems she did as the voting abuse stopped since I pointed it out.

i meant who your responding to are only looking for votes and engage in much of the same themselves
