2022 Adventures with Heidi

Touring with Heidi the Hymer

East or West? North or South?

May 21, 2022May 21, 2022 - Margaret 6 Comments

We had a wonderful evening with our French neighbours. They were so keen to improve their English and to help us improve our French that the evening became almost hysterical as we tried to communicate. Danielle and Jose, the absolute soul of kindness and hospitality, gave us artisan beer (yes I know, the alcohol fastRead more

France we’re Back

Cliffs at Millau

We left Camping El Garrofer in Sitges, detouring to a local shopping area where there is an outdoor Laundromat. It was in the carpark of a supermarket in one of the less salubrious areas outside of the town just up the road from Lidl where we usually do our final shop before leaving. Unfortunately, theRead more

From West to East

May 6, 2022May 7, 2022 - Margaret 4 Comments

It’s about 550 miles from the north of Portugal to Sitges on the Mediterranean coast just south of Barcelona. We rarely drive more than 150 miles a day and so we knew that the trip would involve several overnight stops. For us this makes the journey interesting, stopping at places we’ve never been before andRead more

It’s All About the People

April 28, 2022April 28, 2022 - Margaret 10 Comments

There was no doubt that the aire at Betanzos was a fine place to stay for a couple of days yet on the first night our moods were low. The problem was that other than Muncho in Foz hardly anyone had spoken to us since we arrived in Galicia. Even though we understood that peopleRead more

Gorgeous Galicia

April 19, 2022May 11, 2022 - Margaret 17 Comments

We made steady progress along the coastal motorway from Asturias to Galicia stopping overnight at a free place beside a reservoir in Overo. There was a big shopping centre just a few hundred yards before the thoughtfully provided motorhome parking so we popped in there to fill the fridge. This was the first really bigRead more

Discovering Asturias

Zarautz

We spent three nights on a busy campsite in North West Spain at the start of the Easter holidays. The sun was shining, the campsite was full and there was the happy buzzing sound of children playing together, managing to communicate whether or not they shared a common language. It was amazing how quickly weRead more

Bring me Sunshine

April 9, 2022April 9, 2022 - Margaret 12 Comments

Determined to try new places, we scoured the website of the Camping Car Park people and found an interesting looking place in the little town of Taillebourg. The name itself intrigued us, as it sounds as though it should be in Belgium or the Netherlands but is in fact in the Charente region. Here weRead more

Buns in Bouloire

Notre Dame de Cholet

We left the aire in Broglie in heavy snow and made our way half a mile up the high street to Lidl. We were running low on battery power and it was something of an emergency because the batteries power the blown air part of the heating system. We really needed the heating on inRead more

Brace yourself France – we’re on our way

April 2, 2022April 22, 2022 - Margaret 12 Comments

We recently left home for a twelve week trip to France and Spain. We had to push the leaving date back a week because of a silly but disastrous error with my electric bike. It went like this. We put our electric bikes in for service ready for the trip. Shirley’s took longer than mineRead more

Be careful what you wish for … again

February 2, 2022February 20, 2022 - Margaret 26 Comments

“I want an adventure” I cried one day when I should have known better. Almost everyone we talk to has been suffering from cabin fever and the frustration of plans being scuppered. It’s the common story of Covid. Most motorhomers that we know have looked at their pride and joy with a mixture of longingRead more
