Saturday 21 We awoke to sunshine and after breaky cycled to the local Flea Market for a bit of retail therapy. Once packed we headed off with Fort William entered into the sat nav. On route we stopped and took in the views at the Black Mount overlooking LochTulla for lunch then continuing through stunning scenery in Glen Coe arriving at Glen Nevis campsite beneath the Ben Nevis mountain range. Already the views have been amazing and not one mile of our journey has disappointed. after booking into camp site we went for a drive up the valley to visit Lower Falls waterfall right in the heart of the national park. Pasta and garlic bread for tea and a walk to the local pub for a couple of beers. A great day! Sunday 22 A grimmer ... read more

Had a lovely day yesterday driving along the river Mosel and through the vineyards until we found ourselves looking down on the beautiful town of Cochem with it's great looking castle. Headed straight to the Wildpark at the top of another peak and spent a couple of hours viewing wild boar, goats, various types of deer, wolves, etc, birds of prey and paradise with the highlight being brown bears. Not exactly what I would describe as a Wildpark but there was a roller coaster that had stunning views and a log flume that helped to keep us cool. Went for to an Asian restaurant in the evening in Cochen. Drove to Francorchamps and picked up F1 tickets. After a bit of struggle managed to find the L'Eau de Rouge campsite and have our little space for ... read more

Chris joined the other 4 brave people for a swim. After a rainbow the evening turned out nice. I... read more

Sues stopped blogging coz she says I have more humour. I guess as I have spell checker on my phone I can come across funny rather than stupid. Rothenburg was as expected a very impressive walled town full of American and Japanese visitors, bloody tourists. They did however bring life to the streets and I'm sure thier revenue was appreciated. After a couple of hours of sight seeing we set of for Lauda Konigshofen an insignificant town on our route but one with a great outdoor lido. To our surprise it was free to get in as it was a family fun day and part of the entertainment was a free show watching adolescent youths do BMX stunts of a ramp into the pool, only in Germany. Although there was free parking overnight the spot seemed ... read more
