                    <title>End of the road.</title>
                    <description>Last night we had our last bottle wine in France we return today and look forward to seeing all our friends again but will miss Europe. Our blogs dont always mention enough of the periods when we have had long days of reading talking to fellow travellers walking beaches and hillsides with Horace and just being totally relaxed without any mishaps So well miss it. Since Germany we have sto</description>

                    <title>Gee on campsite showers.</title>
                    <description>Following my earlier rant Is it real camping we noticed how different the facilities are in campsites around Europe. One consistant change since the 70s though has been that they have all improved. We have showers that have timers on them some are movement activated most have sparkling tiles and shiny mirrors above clean white sinks. Some have suites with your own sink toilet and show</description>

                    <title>Bingen am Rhein  Ardennes.  Fathers day German style and getting loaded on Rhine wine.</title>
                    <description>So we settled in to our nice friendly camp site nodded to our neighbours as you do and watched the pleasure cruises and commercial barges passing on the Rhine. Then a caravan arrived with four men in and were going to pitch in front of us blocking out our view. I asked in my best German sign language if they might pitch further over and they heartily agreed. There are no set pitches on this site </description>

                    <description>After five weeks on the road we are now experienced European travellers we can set up camp in 30 mins and the team are like a well oiled machine. Very few words need to be spoken as we arrive on site and the Vaughanmobile is grounded and stabilised. All her vital connections are made water tanks filled waste outlets operational mains power fed in and of course onboard bathroom facilities mad</description>

                    <description>Did the Austrian transport department employ an army of troglodytes to build their roads After crossing the border from Slovenia we seemed to disappear into a tunnel and emerge somewhere near Salzburg Not quite true and those parts of the journey in daylight made us realise how stunning the Alps are. Those lofty peaks seen from afar as the backdrop to our view in Slovenia were now up close an</description>

                    <title>Medjeva  Krk  Bled. Slovenia shows its beauty and its dark side </title>
                    <description>Its beauty overwhelms you as you drive around the lake if someone had been asked to paint a picture from their imagination and make it as pretty as pretty could be they may well have painted this scene. They may have thought to paint a small lake with blue water and a mountain that rises up behind with lush green sides and a high barren peak. A small castle perched on a cliff sets the scene. </description>

Some people we wish we had more time to get to know others we were glad that one of us would be moving on soon We were talking the other night of those weve met over the last </description>

                    <title>Venice  Medjeva Croatia</title>
                    <description>So we leave the hot and deserted beaches of the Venetian coast behind having not actually seen the City It was several hours of bus and ferry travel into the city no cars allowed so we pass over the city tour and vow to take a break here in the future sans Horace to see it. We head for the Slovenian border looking for a place to buy the famous vignette.  A word about tolls they can be expensi</description>

                    <description>Since the last ramblings of our travels we have had mixed fortunes with weather but have finally landed on our feet at a site just outside Venice on the Adriatic. The weather is perfect and we have achieved one ambition of the trip  to swim together in the sea with Horace. It is a perfect coast for swimming shallow beaches that get deeper very gradually as it is shallow it warms quickly in th</description>

                    <description>There was confusion this morning in the Vaughanmobile we said how busy the town we drove through yesterday was for a Sunday and that obviously Sunday trading has taken off in Italy. No it was busy because it was Saturday Wed lost a day somewhere lying in the sun and exploring the Cote DAzure. The exciting moment of the day though was taking a very narrow road down the hillside into a tow</description>

                    <title>Is it real camping</title>
                    <description>Some of the outfits that you see on the sites these days make you wonder if its really a campsite or more of a technology park You will often see a campervan pull in with a car on a trailer behind or if your really posh the huge campervans have a small garage that opens up at the back and the car is inside Then the sides of the mobile house extend and there is a strange whirring noise as the </description>

                    <title>The Camargue and Cannes</title>
                    <description>We have spent three days in St Marie sur la mer. A small seaside town on the med coast and in the Camargue area. The highlights were the White horses of the area and the unique cattle the mistral wind that blows from the sea and keeps temperatures comfortable. We were surprised to find so much Roman history in the area. The Amphitheaters in Arles which was the second most important city after Ro</description>

                    <description>Just outside Caze Mondenard near Cahors on the side of a valley nestling in the contours of the hill youll find two dwellings that have been restored over the last 20 years by our friends. They have taken time and made the property a haven. They bought it all those years ago because of the view down the valley and they have done it tastefully and beautifully. Luckily they are also excellent h</description>
