Driving "on the continent"

Our drive to Vitoria was comparatively stress free as a consequence of  the capable driving of Mr Glis (and my navigational skills, she added, modestly!). That said, with only one or two exceptions, the general courtesy shown by the French and Spanish road users was of a very high standard, with little lane hogging or cutting in. We were surprised, as it has been several years since we last took the car to Mainland Europe and we thought that there would have been an inevitable decline in driving behaviours, just as has happened in the UK.  Maybe we were lucky?

Driving with Miss Daphne

Nerea's been out driving in Daphne on several occasions with Andy. He's got nerves of steel and is quite happy to accompany her; I'm not sure if I went out with her it would do either of us any good! Nerea's still at the stage of gaining confidence so at the moment they're revising lessons and concentrating on navigating the quieter roads in the area.  We're happy she had several lessons before getting the car as it seems to have paid dividends.  She's able to use the controls and understand the driving concept.  Hopefully it all seems to be coming together
