What town in Norway?
Hi Mikaela and Aaron, The picture shown is of Reine on the Lofoten Island of Moskenesoy. The Lofotens are quite stunning. It's about as close to heaven that you could possibly get, but it is a long way north! There are a few more pictures on our blog 'Motorhome News from Europe 29'. Sorry, I can't give you the link - I lost the ability to do this when the Travelblog format last changed! Let me know if you require more details. David Grey haired nomads

Age shall not weary them...
Love reading your blogs. Sylvia and I are not far behind you in age and we still love travelling. We are not as up-market as you two, we only have a camper-trailer but - apart from the occasional really cold day - it is comfortable and we can get to places a caravan/campervan won't go.Off to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broken_Hill,_New_South_WalesBroken Hill in a couple of weeks. Look forward to reading more of your adventures. John

The creaking bones.....
Hi, John and Sylvia, Thanks for your comments and your interest in our blogs! It's a long while since we were in Australia, but we loved every moment then. Sadly it was before blogging - and digital cameras, and wi-fi and...... Our Australian friends, Brian and Kathryn from Adelaide, are due back here in the UK any day now after skiing their way across the French Alps and hopefully they will be joining us on our travels to the Baltic States, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, when we leave in three weeks! But by now you'll be enjoying the delights of Broken Hill. We wish you a long, happy and gratifying future on your travels. David and Janice

You two don't hang about either! Thanks for the comments. We loved San Francisco - but is that the view of the visitor just touching the surface? David

Delighted to have met such a wonderful couple
Dear David & Janice, We were delighted to have met you briefly last Friday (17th) at the end of the trail to the caldera from Las Presillas Bajas. You both have a marvelously relaxed air about you and seem to meet triumph and disaster just the same. We've been inspired by your story and have been reading parts of your blog for several years as a great source of ideas and information. I only regret that when you mentioned your blog on Friday I didn't follow your lead and missed the opportunity. It was thinking about the bits of information you mentioned that I put it together and guessed it was you. Just been onto your blog again (it's in my favourites) and there you both are! We'll be keeping a closer watch on you from now on. Thanks for sharing your time with us and for sharing your stories in this blog. All the very best for the future. Neil & Anne.

The end of the trail!
Well now, what do you make of that? There we were thinking nobody reads our blog and we miss the one chance to really get to know you. We did enjoy the chat though our relaxed attitude may well have had something to do with the fact we were knackered! Give us a call should you ever get to the Norfolk/Suffolk borders. I think if you send us a 'message' rather than a 'comment' on the blog it will come through to us as an email. You have it all ahead of you. Go for it! David and Janice

Hurrah!
At last - we'd given you up as lost and were about to send out messages via the Foreign Legion to see if there were any motorhomes stuck in a desert somewhere. You see, for some strange reason, we didn't receive notifications about your previous blogs from France, etc. and were genuinely beginning to worry. Anyhow, all's well even if it hasn't ended well yet. And, oh dear what a shame you missed Rabat - it really is a very interesting place (at least, it was when I went there about 30 years ago!). Looking forward to more news soon. Meantime, happy New Year to you both. We hope it'll be a good one. Keep smiling!

We were in Morocco a few weeks ago and had a wonderful time. Certainly, enjoyed remembering those wonderful places.

Thoroughly Enjoyable Blog
Your words and pictures capture a different perspective on a place that many people visit, but few would dare to drive through.

Thoroughly enjoyable blog
Thanks, Shane. Good to know somebody get to read my ramblings. As you'll possibly note, by the time we come to leave our perception of Morocco does change a little. There are indeed three parts to Morocco; the west coast, the south (including the desert) and the north, and they are all so different. I seem to remember you've been there and I'll check your blogs to get yet another insight! Happy travelling, David

Spain and Portugal
We are sitting in the lounge........4.30pm and it's dark already. The wind is howling with v. heavy showers as well. Indeed, there has been widespread disruption countrywide with the v. poor weather. A little different to yours ! Have been today to nr. Pontifract, to visit the home of IH motorhomes as we are looking to change ours as it is over the 3500kg threshold and Peter no longer has the C1 category on his driving licence. We are looking at a van conversion and saw one that would suit us well.Just waiting to hear what they would offer in part exchange. We will await the next instalment ! Best wishes to you both and a Happy New year, Georgina and Peter.

Just read your Peruvian blog
Hello J and D, We are two gray haired folk - well I would be if I didn't dye it - who have just come back from a month in Peru. It was the biggest trip we ever made and it went so well that we are wondering what to do next. I so enjoyed reading about what you did, and share a lot of your perceptions about Peru. I'll be back...

Peru and what to do next
Hi Lesley, Thanks for you kind comments. Peru was stunning wasn't it. We must have just missed you. What to do next? Our list gets longer, not shorter, as life's clock keeps ticking. We're off to Portugal again for Christmas and then Morocco for the winter, in our motorhome, in three weeks time. Can't stand the cold! Spring will see us motorhoming in the Baltic, up to Poland, Estonia and all that, with a side trip into Russia perhaps. January 2013 looks like Northern India and Cambodia, Vietnam and China have just appeared on the list too I notice! Any other ideas? David
