October 8, 2019 in France ⋅ ⛅ 21 °CAnother overnight stop. As France switches to paid camper stops this is probably typical of what we will see next time we cross France; complicated ticket machine, overpriced and empty.
Jill Robinson-d'EsterreAre they really switching to paid Aires? 😳 You should spend some time in the UK, it would cost that just for the electricity! 🙄 It's not called rip-off Britain for nothing lol
October 7, 2019 in France ⋅ ⛅ 6 °CAn overnight on our way to Spain. Did our French shopping today so only did 314 kms but had 82 roundabouts!
October 6, 2019 in France ⋅ ☁️ 14 °CA very wet 436kms from Germany today.
October 4, 2019 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 9 °CA great and very typical German town with a street market throughout today. Stalls and shops filled with amazing German food. Our last stock up point before crossing into France tomorrow.
Berty 2 TripThere is o much to love about German food, fridge and freezer full. Just left enough room to pick up some french butter! Hummm...Oktoberfest...just wasn’t our thing. It was really just a big fair ground with added beer halls that were enormous, overcrowded, frantic and loud. We found a tiny corner outside one beer hall, had a beer and a chat with a french family and 2 South Korean guys and then left. Too busy/crowded, but we had to give it a go. Headed into Munich for the rest of the day, much more relaxed having a beer and schnitzel at the Hofbrauhaus! 🍺🍺🍺
Jill Robinson-d'EsterreThat's the impression we got of Oktoberfest from the small bit we saw of it. That's not our thing either! Sounds like you rescued the day in a much nicer fashion though 👍😁
October 1, 2019 in Germany ⋅ ⛅ 20 °CFinally! After 8 years on the road and umpteen visits to Germany (including 3 times to Munich) we are here for the Oktoberfest! As a local told us today, it’s a once a life time experience, youRead more
September 29, 2019 in Austria ⋅ ⛅ 19 °CBack in Salzburg for a couple of days on our way to Munich for Oktoberfest.
Berty 2 TripSalzburg is beautiful, Oktoberfest will be a first for us so will let you know in a few days. 🍺🍺🍺
September 28, 2019 in Austria ⋅ ⛅ 18 °COn the lake, a lovely spot.
September 27, 2019 in Italy ⋅ ⛅ 20 °CAn overnight on our way to Austria. Did some great shopping for Italian goodies on our way out.
September 21, 2019 in Croatia ⋅ ☀️ 19 °CBack at one of the very best campsites we’ve ever been in. It’s not as busy as in July but there are about 2,000 naked campers here and the weather is ok for now. To their credit, the campsite isRead more
Berty 2 TripHey, no we’re not. We’ve included at least one naturist campsite in each summer for about 4 years and it’s always been great, even when the camp itself is a bit rubbish. It’s very relaxing, friendly and quiet even in the buzz of July. And no laundry to do. Cheers, Alan
Berty 2 TripNaturist campsites are about as equalising an environment as you can get, you get people of all ages, sizes and shapes...nobody cares. Kids seem happier, possibly because they don’t have to worry about coming back to mum/dad with ripped, dirty clothes and the only washing to done are the dishes, so more relaxing time for everyone. You guys should try it, you may be surprised. Or, try a German textiles free spa, it’s a way to ease into naturist lifestyle (if you haven’t tried it before)....we can recommend a spa in Erding, near Munich if you ever pass that way. Cheers Ali
Wow, that's some driving... Super impressed 👍x
