Category: 2024 Summer Holiday to Greece

After a decent night’s sleep holed up in the Munich Arrabella Park Best Western, we could properly attack Munich. Sue went for a run, first thing, to the English Garden and got a bit lost. And then lost her room key. Breakfast was at the hotel and nice not to have to cook anything. With…

It’s another travel day. But thankfully, after the over night rain, it was dry when we woke up. It had rained a lot over night, but the van hasn’t shown any signs of leaking and we were completely dry through the rain… that’s not really camping is it? Both of us had a shower up…

It’s wet. There’s no getting over it… it’s wet. We woke up to it having rained since 2 in the morning and the awning had taken on too much water… it had pooled and looked like it might have broken it… bugger!. We thought we had enough drainage angle, one side of the awning lowered,…

We hadn’t got much planned today as we’d done a bit of exploring by bus yesterday and were planning to do one of the Black Forest key attractions, a water-fall, as we head out tomorrow. So we decided to take a bike ride into Bühl, about 12km away. We chose a fairly flat route still…

So we’re camping on the edge of the Black Forest and we’ve got a few days here. We also got given a public transport pass as part of the campsite fee, so we decided to use the bus system and go and have a look at Baden Baden. It turns out that you can take…

Today was another travel day, about 220km from Trier to Achern… on the West side of the Black Forest. It was a quick pack-up today as we hadn’t set everything up for just one night. We enjoyed the campsite and the husband and wife that ran it… at least their relationship! The husband was Dutch…

I’ve had a few questions come in after people have read the blog, so in the spirit of this blog (that’s “over sharing” in case you missed it) here’s the questions, and then the answers – if you’re a pictures person then this post isn’t for you! 🤣 That’s enough for now, let’s get to…

Day 10 already! I’ve had a few questions come in, mostly via WhatsApp… seeing as the website comments thing doesn’t seem to work for everyone! So if you want to have a look at answers to the first Q&A post, then look here. After a night of rain and thunderstorms we woke up to a…

The day started on the Vianden Castle campsite… in case you’re not keeping up. In the end it was quite a decent site… see below! The plan was then to drive to Enternach, about 30km away (still on the Luxembourg / German border), have a wander around and to do the Gorges du Loup followed…

We have two nights in the Vianden Castle Campsite. We’re finding that unless it’s a really limited amount of stuff we want to do in an area then it’s best to stay two nights in a place. That way we have time to do whatever the area has to offer and we can chill without…
