We stayed in the camping T’Uulof in a little city called Zierikzee where we saw Bea and Javi, a Spanish couple that we met in Saumur, France, and this time we took pictures, at least for the evening that we saw them as they left next day and we will stay for a few days. The camping is ok but […]
After Gouda, we thought of going to see Rotterdam but all the places where we could park with the motorhome have really bad comments, people were told that for 2 hours gone to see the city when they come back their windows and locks were broken and their things stolen. So we decided to go to see the city of […]
Due to the heat, we decided to go a camping in Tienhoven near to the river where you can swimm. The camping is called café de Koekoek, with huge plots. We parked under a tree so we had shade. The facilities are ok but we could not find where to wash the dishes, so we did in the motorhome as […]
On Monday we went to see the Kinderdijk windmills, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. To arrive there we have to take a ferry from Dordrecht and to arrive at the ferry we followed Cor. Cor was riding his bicycle and we were on our motorbike. Holland has the best roads in Europe and there are bike lanes in all the […]
Last Saturday we said goodbye to Janet (Ben’s mum) and John and we went to Harwich where we will take the ferry to Holland. On the way, we stopped in a pub called The Bull just outside of London to meet our friend Erica to catch up, have lunch and see our motorhome. Ben and I had our last pie […]
We went with Mathew, Ben’s brother, and the dogs, Asha and Humphry to the Tewkesbury Medieval Festival. The main feature of the festival is the reenactment of the Battle of Tewkesbury, which was fought in 1471. Located on parts of the ground where the original battle was fought, the festival also features a medieval camp, in which traders ply their […]
Finally, we went to visit Oxford, which was amazing! Oxford is the only city in Oxfordshire and revolves around its prestigious university, established in the 12th century. The architecture of its 38 colleges in the city’s medieval centre is fantastic. University College and Magdalen College are off the High Street, which runs from Carfax Tower to the Botanic garden on […]
Friday morning when we were preparing to go to Glasgow and the concert we received an email telling us that the concert has been rescheduled due to an illness. We were totally disappointed! They played 2 days before in London and I think they were partying and now they couldn’t play in Glasgow. We asked for our money back as […]
From Glencoe, we went to a town called Balloch in the south-west shores of Loch Lomond. On the way we stopped many times as the scenery was terrific, with islands in the middle of the loch and mountains in the background. We decided to go to see Balloch Castle Country Park before going to our camping. The castle is located […]
We arrived at Glen Nevis campsite at the bottom of Ben Nevis mountain so the views are amazing! The camping is enormous and surrounded by mountains but you do not have the feeling that you are in massive camping. The facilities are pretty good, with music in the toilets and washing areas but far from the plots so you have […]
