Morning Salou The Spanish all went home Sunday night and the site is a lot quieter. The amount of kids knocking around on bikes has also deminished so the paths on site are safer. Having said that theres still the occassional kamikaze invalid scooter that sneeks up on you! Spent yesterday at the site next… Continue reading 16 &17th Sept Salou

He told us theee was only one taxi for the town and he is not around. So its back to the motorhome for… Continue reading 22.07.2017 Camping Les Ripettes

I must admit I didn’t check the distance to our next campsite, it looked quaint and rural on the net and generally in the right  direction. The amount of travelling didn’t enter the equation. 638km later I wish I had taken it into account. Its rural alright and the pitches are enormous. The reading library… Continue reading 18.07.2017 Camping Les Ripettes

Lazy morning at the campsite. Bikes at the ready though and Maureen raring to go. This campsite (Camping Schwabenmuhle) is well laid out and the toilet facilities are some of the best we have come across. Each pitch has electricity and water and the only drawback is the waste disposals are way off the pitch.… Continue reading 16.07.2017 Laudenbach

Yes, it actually happened, Mo gathered enough courage to take to the bike. Its great here as everywhere seems to have a cycle path. Perfect for Mo to gain her confidence. She got carried away and nearly beat me home!  We didn’t realise that the local town, Weikersheim, was a bit of a tourist attraction… Continue reading 15.07.2017 Travel to Weikersheim by bike
