I`m taking my Explorer exploring
Well I`m off to France for a weeks holiday. After much debating I`ve decided that I`ll take the Explorer with me on vacation. It`s low key, comfortable and is the best choice when exploring a new country
 The biggest challenge will be living without internet connection for a week!  Thus being without this great forum for a week!Oh, well. I`ll just have to take comfort in the 30+degrees celcius and the cold beer  I`ve packed my camerabag full, so I`ll be sure to bring back some photos of me erm...Exploring stuff  So long guys and girls, I`ll miss you all!  Strapped on and ready for action  -Ram |

Safe travels man
 Enjoy the French hospitality, the food, wine, beer and the weather. The Explorer is a great travelling watch that's for sure. Looking forward to some of your great photos upon your return.

I`m taking my Explorer exploring-Part 2
Well I made it back in one piece as did my camera equipment and ofcourse the Explorer
I had a blast and coming from a rainy 10 degrees celcius here in Norway to the 30 degrees celcius of Provence, made my pale and battered Norwegian body feel new again! Although we ordered a cabriolet, this was not excactly what I had in mind  I was still excited though, and it didn`t take long before I spotted the first Rolex AD, I guess Rolex AD`s are a bit different abroad...  Err...Moving on. Ah, the peacefulle village of Cotignac    I needed to cool down, but with these tempratures not even the icecream man could take it.  I guess a couple of these wont hurt  Feeling rejuvinated from the biere (That would be french for beer, I picked up some french too..) I headed onwards and upwards!  Ah, now we are talking!   A new day, New adventures  I eat danger for breakfast  It`s still hot, need to cool down. What`s behind this?  Perfect   On the way back I spotted a whole field of Bonzai trees...The French are weird.  Ah, the safety of the village  Village by night   Time for some wine  I got the small barrel since I`m only staying a week  Thanks for looking! -Rambam the Explorer

That waterfall with pools looks very inviting.
Looks like you had a great time. I can't work out if that Rolex sign was a photoshop addition or was real
