225 – 226 Thrillseeking walks, cave houses and gorges

Todays walk could be dangerous…you even have to wear a hard hat! According to reviews if the Caminito del Rey is sold out online you can still go early in the morning in the hope of getting one of the 50 spare day tickets. I’d asked the guide the day before and he suggested arriving …

197-199 – Vin yards & Light Shows

Apologies, its catch up time. My parents came to visit and my evenings have been a wonderful mix of board game family time. I was also hit hard with the blues for a couple of days, but that fortunately lifted for our mock xmas today! Yesterday we took the pups to an old quarry called …

196 – Parents brought xmas with them!

As December fast approaches there are two types of people: Mrs Claus aka Maria – sad about not having a xmas tree, googled creative ways to decorate your van, wondering what santa is up to (visited his house and reindeer in Finland during the summer, but he also lives in Wales with my nan), bought …

195 – Meeting in the mountains

After a little hiccup finding each other, our two blue dots moving from opposite ends of Europe finally met up in the quaint french village of Saint Remy de Provence. This is my parents first trip to Europe in their new campervan and so far all is going well. They are much better provisioned with …

190, 191, 192, 193 – Major catch up from the pyramids and Milan

Apologies for the delay, I’ve been out of sorts and had fallen behind. All caught up now, hope you enjoy xxx 190 – Pyramids in the clouds and a drip feed of chocolate in Milan Never before have our lives been so revolved around the weather. We have waterproofs and can cope with the rain …

188 – 189 Becalmed & Gnomes

It is rare I have just a single photo of my day, but torrential rains took away our lake garda mountain views and bar a quick dog walk and pizza outing we were becalmed in the van. Both Mark and I tried our best to amuse ourselves with a never ending list of books, studies, …

172 – Plitvice Lakes aka heaven on earth

Today I’m largely going to let the photos do the talking. We drove to Plitvice National Park which is on the Croatia bucket list for many visitors with good reason – it is stunning! We opted for the green route C from the main carpark 1 which covers the great waterfall and both the upper …

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 …

158 – A rustic thermal spa

Almost 6 months into our trip and I’m still making daft mistakes. I had planned to climb Krivan mountain this morning. Peeked out the window at 6am and it was still dark and didn’t want to wake anyone so waited, but was conscious it was a 4hr hike, so thought I’d double check the route…its …

151 – Favourites revisited

Late last night we had parked by the large Jordana park on the edge of the city so that this morning we were all set for a Sunday morning stroll. Armed with masses of treats I wanted to try some off lead recall training as there are so few places where they are allowed to …
