Wow you lucky thing, hope you get some lovely weather and you need to keep cool.

The only thing I can recommend is making sure you find a pitch near a tree so you can get some shade during the day. We have been to France and played at hunt the shade, moving round the van to keep in the shadow.

Have a great time.

keeping cool

While your driving -
1.you can buy little hand fans (I saw some in M&S)
2. A small spray bottle full of cold water
3. a wet towel around the neck if it's really hot
4. The vents on the far right and left blow a gale thru my C15

At the Ardeche -
Take a canoe trip, your almost bound to fall out and its lovely and cold.
I speak from first hand experience!
If your brave you can climb inside the Pont De Arc and jump into the water from a hole near the top!
You lucky begger, I long to revisit that place.
BTW if it rains you'll know it! And that'll cool things down for a bit
