Lake Balaton

 Europe » Hungary » Lake Balaton
Woke up to a cloudy sky but still pretty hot. We were invited over to our Austrian neighbours to show as a snake slithering it was along the ground, just the ticket, we were on high alert of snakes during the day. The sun came out with intense heat, and we dipped in the lake, matt was kindly told he could borrow a windsurfer from a Hungarian couple staying at the campsite, and he pottered around the lake, then later trying his hand at fishing. We have been pretty inundated with campers coming up to the van and steering at the [View Full Entry]

We left Slovenia driving through Austria into Hungary. It was a pretty long day, arriving on the shores of Lake Balaton in Hungry a very beautiful lake were tourists flock to. We decided to go for a hotel break and found a great one on the shores of the Lake. We enjoyed a night of pampering, spa, sauna, pool and a room slightly bigger than that of the camper with a bathroom attached. We walked to a local restaurant to taste the local dishes and headed back to the hotel with extremely full tummies. [View Full Entry]

Croatia

 Europe » Croatia
We made our way to Croatia from Slovenia. Croatia has had a rocky history in the past, but is a stable now. We stayed at three different campsites in Croatia, didn’t make it as far as Dubrovnik, as we were enjoying the Adriatic to much. Croatia is beautiful, full on sprawling vine yards and fresh fruit stalls along the roads also selling there famous wine and olive oil. We spent 2 weeks just chilling, the routine was pretty much, get up, have breakfast, read a little and head to the sea, the temp was baking so by 12pm /1pm it was [View Full Entry]

We left our campsite on the Soka River to travel to Lake Boheme, getting there was a treat , we drove onto a vehicle train that took us through various tunnels and through the mountain range it was really strange as we went through the tunnels still sitting in the van, but enjoy breakfast along the way. The journey took 40 mins to reach Lake Boheme. We were recommended a camp site on the lake side but it was pretty crammed in so we discovered another along a river. We set up and had our first dip in the river it [View Full Entry]

Same old , Same Old for the Flying gang , misus John , who was up early for his Hike, and Alex , Antje, Jeff were moving on to Austria for flying ,as the conditons here were to stable for them, For the non flyers that means that that they are not able to stay up for long periods of time and usually flying consists of a "top to Botom". Glen the hiker decided transport up today was the go , no hiking today. Lyds chilled , bit of washing required to be done. Afterwards Waterfall bound , found a [View Full Entry]
