Campervanning for beginners (1)

Getting organised for a campervan trip didn't come easily. Too many problems and too used to cycle holidays where space is so limited it's easy to decide what's essential. However van was packed and off we went.

Basically: Lamancha (Scottish Borders), the Channel, Bordeaux and not quite, Cadiz. Easy if you say it quickly.

Road photo opportunities are rare it seems when it's motorways or dark damp campsites and these two were the best until Bordeaux.

Bordeaux was the only major city we drove near and even then it was really a suburb village going by the name Gradignan. A bit Gulliver's sounding but it was warm and dry enough for us to walk to  centre ville to buy food and soak up the french town ambience (said with french accent of course).

These two were pudding of course. And they were good.

Next photo stop El Puerto de Sanata Maria.

The bikes were strapped to the back of course.
