Wanna hear something scary? When I was a kid, we'd pack for holidays, get a trailer with the tents, get in the car, drive 100km to a camping ground and stay there for a month. That was the "big summer trip" of the year  . The oldies in my family speak a mix of French and Spanish called 'patois'. All those dialects disapear with the people because most are not written, just spoken. Each Valley has its own. You walk over the hill in another village and it's very likely people don't speak the same patois.  |
Sounds like a typical Aussie family....a great mix
Blood takes a long time to dilute
Looks like your parents were just doing the family thing....go 100km, stop and pitch camp
. Wonder what they thought was beyond the pale, so to speak??. "There'd be dragons!!"
