Herkules Bergpark, Wilhelmshöhe, Kassel.

Sat in the caravan, no plans today until The Boss looked up from his iPad and asked "What day is it?"  We genuinely have lost track, and, "What time is it?"  upon establishing it was Wednesday lunchtime he replied "Quick, let's get some food down us now, we need to be somewhere by 2.30pm." It... Continue Reading →

The ‘Low’ Lands and ‘Highs’ of Amsterdam

The wind was blowing a hooley as we headed north on the second leg of our trip, our Dutch neighbour 'Max' said it would not be too windy to take the coastal route, I think the Dutch must be more hardened to the wind judging by the colour of The Boss' knuckles holding onto the... Continue Reading →

Keukenhof -The Garden of Tulips… and People 

Beautiful sunny day predicted by the weather app, rain tomorrow. With only 2 days before we pack up the caravan and head towards our next destination we decide that today is the day to visit the 'tulips of (just south of) Amsterdam'. It seems that the world, his wife and his dog looked at the... Continue Reading →

Turn left towards Belgium & The Netherlands

Packed the caravan and sorted everything out in the days leading up to the trip. Quick shower. Wave goodbye to our grown up jellybeans and the cat, in the car on the way to the storage site by 8am. 50 mins after the start of our drive we were still only 18 miles down the... Continue Reading →

EuroTunnel in a Caravan 

This is our second caravan trip to Europe and on both occasions we have gone via Eurotunnel. We have looked at ferry alternatives but on balance, the cost, frequency of trains, easy boarding, speed of crossing and ability to stay with car/caravan make it a no-brainer for us. Once again we paid for the trip,... Continue Reading →

Whether you have the funds to choose a top of the range caravan or go for something that needs lots of TLC, there is a holiday out there... Continue Reading →

Time to go Home

Getting ready to go home after being in my 'happy place' starts on our last night. I get that sickening feeling that I used to get as a child on a Sunday night when your mum calls you in from playing out and tells you that after tea it's bath and bed, school tomorrow. I'm... Continue Reading →

Winchester Escape

Midweek weekend came early. The Boss finished work and was home by Monday lunchtime. Snaffled a quick lunch, threw some bits in a few bags, raided the freezer, shouted goodbye to the cat as the front door  closed behind us, (the kids will be home from work later for him to look after). Straight down... Continue Reading →

Morn Hill – Caravan and Motorhome Club Site – Winchester 

*Point to note. This site has been refusing this blog was written. An old favourite of ours for a few reasons. Locality, 23 miles from home and our nearest site. Like a comfy pair of slippers we feel right at home.  The site is split into two levels, with reception on the upper level. Met... Continue Reading →

London Duck Tour

The Boss recently celebrated hitting the big 50, one of his gifts off the girls was a trip on the London Duck Tour. Having been regular visitors to London in our 10 years of living in the South, we hoped that this would show us London through fresh eyes. After alighting our train at Waterloo it's...
