It was a restless sleep due to a major
thunder and lightening storm we experienced. It reminded me of a haunted movie!

We checked into the campground at
Budapest, only to discover that a mechanic was directly over the road from us.

plugs, distributor cap and cables. That evening we caught the ... Read more >

The next day was a driving day and we
farewelled Germany and crossed into Poland, staying at Pozrzadlo, a rural town
40km’s over the border itself. The campground was at the back of someone’s

Following Dijon we
headed East just past the German boarder to the outskirts of Frieburg in
sizzling temperatures that I would suspect were in the high 30’s with 100%
humidity. It was such a hard drive in that heat, especially when you feel the
heat ... Read more >

In the morning I
collected the baguette and two croissants I had pre ordered (one of the things

After a late start we
drove 250km along the coast to Santa Pola, another beach town. We diverted at

With Dusty (our campervan) all packed, we said our farewells to London for the next 5 months,
heading direct to Dover. We weren’t catching the ferry until 6am the next

around ... Read more >
