171 – Eating our way round Zagreb

You know that health kick I started…well today it got triumphantly sidelined 🤣 We hunted down some of the best food Zagreb has to offer and combined it with two wonderful museums. As a side note, last night I managed to convince myself to go for a run. I’ve had a bad relationship with exercise …

170 – A glimpse of the quiet Varazdin and Zagreb streets

We hadn’t realised that today is All Saints Day (a Christian holiday celebration for those who have passed into heaven), and thus everywhere is closed, bar a few cafes. This made it especially lovely to visit Varazdin Cemetery, and until I asked a local if there was a special service going on, we were confused …

169 – Long drives, beautiful lakes and the lure of Croatia

From the comfort of my bed I could look straight through the sunroof to a cracking view of the TV tower. At only 5 degrees I was tempted to stay snuggled up in bed and I doubt the pups would have minded. However Markles is a restless soul and doesn’t believe in duvet days, so …

168 – Baby wild boar and spectacular ceramics!

Quite often the highlight of our day is something completely unplanned and just a wonderful surprise. This morning we had a knock on our door at 7am, and a couple of builders asked if we could shuffle so they could park their work vans for a job opposite. We happily obliged (its illegal to wild …

167 – Embracing the drizzle in Szeged

Despite a deep clean and half a bottle of febreeze my sofabed still smells funky. The dogs seem to forget then catch a whiff of the puke patch and deep sniff it again. Its literally the only thing I can’t chuck in the washing machine so I will have another go at deep cleaning it …

166 – Cave Spa and beehive rocks

Starting your week, waking up next to two huge piles of dog puke is pretty grim…and also an illustration of my epic deep sleeping skills. Mabel stole some food yesterday so we are guessing it was her, but she seemed happier as the day went on. Big thanks to the hubby for clearing it up! …

165 – Quickest tour in town

Compared to Budapests 30+ minute bus/tram ride into the city, the smaller towns are so much easier in a motorhome. We had parked overnight 2 minutes walk from the centre of Eger, near a lovely park which was perfect for our morning dog walk. The pups were in crazy playful mode, rolling and ‘fighting’ in …

164 – Salt Hills and Sheep Walking

With three pups snuggled up on the bed with me it can be very hard to get up and going in the morning. It seems we have all adapted to a slower start. Still needs must, it was our last day in Budapest and we wanted to visit the Centre Market. As a big foodie, …

163 – It’s all about the dogs

They say you should do the worst things first and today I had to buckle down and do something I was dreading. As a dog groomer I have a minimum quarterly agreement with my pups that they have a bath (Mabel rolls in poo so has far more). Last time I tried to bath Ernest …

162 – Random Spring Clean

When you are in a beautiful city like Budapest the last thing you expect to be doing is a deep spring clean of your motorhome. But that is what I did, despite the glorious 23 degrees outside. We had a lovely walk with the pups, then I came back and started tidying up and it …
