Summary
It's the honeymoon season finale, more or less, as we've made it back to Paris.
Yep, 4,000 kilometres (2,500 miles) at 45 km an hour (30 miles) on one little red scooter.
Here we answer some of the frequently asked questions from you listeners, we share the ups and downs, and give a few tips for places you should visit if you ever need a new spot to see in France.
Oh, and we also discuss how the scooter is allegedly a stolen vehicle...
Season five on the way.
