French Cevennes with Ford 4x4 SMB, Jeep and baby

Hi there,

I wrote already about me importing a '08 Ford e350 QuadVan 4x4 SMB (5.4) to germany last year. (http://www.sportsmobileforum.com/for...ort-15959.html)

Now we made our first trip together with friends in their Jeep JKU and our 8 months old baby to the French Cevennes.

I wanted to contribute to this forum by showing you my trip report. Unfortunately it is in german language. So I give you a link to the german forum I posted it.

Be aware: It is the automatic google translation which, as you know, is more or less hilarious. I hope you get what I meant and have some fun at the same time.

Philipp

Cool! Keep the Europe adventures coming! I need good ideas for off-the-beaten-path photo trips. I'll leave the tourist traps to... ummm... well... the tourists.

Thanks for sharing!

Hi Chetubi,

Great trip report of a region that I know pretty well.
How did your son enjoy the trip ? Not too bumpy for him ?

The next time you drive near Switzerland, you should come to my place to say hello..! ;-)

Hello,

Timur loved the bumpy offroad driving. Fell asleep instantly.

Did Not Know you were in CH? I would have come for a visit.

If everything goes well, I should make VivaLaVida cross the Atlantic Ocean in next October, then register her in Switzerland... ;-)
