First went here
St Jean de Muzols which is near Tournon, just a few kms from the Rhone...

... where I took the Disco for a spin, ended up in Lalouvesc where I took this picture...
Then over the 'col de Cabre' (1200m)...
... on to this spot in Clamensane ...
with views like this...
We visited the highest road in Europe over the Col de la Bonette (2800m) where you'll find snow in July...
Climbed to the summit at 2870m, see the Disco down below?
Then to the last camp site in Artemare which had a particularly wide entrance.
Finally went home after 4,5 weeks abroad to come back to...
I covered just short of 3500kms and the Disco carried all my family in utter luxury, towing the caravan up 17% inclines etc.
Oh man I never get tired of this vehicle.

Well first of all I hope you are going to give other people a chance winning a calendar page.
Second, you could start making your own calendar.
What absolute absolute stunning images, I am deeply impressed. And that is not easy.
I especially like the first one with the silvery effect and the 2nd from last with the stealthy look, as if the Disco has taken on a camouflage suit.
