• Heading into Slovakia

    September 6 in Austria ⋅ 🌙 16 °C

    After a quick stopover at the inappropriately named Camping Paradise Gardens just south of Vienna, we headed onwards to Slovakia. That was after Nigel was shouted at by the owner for following his wife's instructions on how to negotiate an exit from the pitch. A full on argument ensued between the owner and his wife, none of which we understood as it was all in German, but our money was on the wife so we made a hasty exit. Nigel wanted to check the caravan brakes as they keep sticking but he ended up having to do it in a lay-by instead! Heading through Slovakia we were driving on route 66 towards some big storm clouds and thought we would get caught as soon as we arrived at the campsite but unlike the previous night, we escaped the rain. We are now staying at a Dutch run country/farm campsite out in the sticks where thankfully there are not so many people. We have been invited to sit round the firepit with the other campers but that is far too sociable for us so we will watch the sun go down over the cow fields instead 😜Read more
