Day 08: Norrkoping, Sweden. Usually the blog starts with our morning, how much coffee we drank, did we or did we not lie in bed till 10AM and did we get out of Doris and on the road before midday. Today’s edition is a little different as I want to rewind to just after I […]
Doris On Tour
Vikings in Roskilde and some Swedish Drama
Day 06: Raa, Sweden. Another morning being woken up by the heat and the glaring sun. I mean there are worse ways to wake up of course. That and when your view is a port, with beautiful water and passing boats. There are a lot of ways to spend your Sunday morning that could be […]
The Oldest Town in Denmark
Day 06: Ribe, Denmark. Whether we just hadn’t noticed this for the last few days or whether it was because we’re further North AND because it was Mid Summers eve, it was still light at nearly midnight last night. CRAZY! We had a great nights sleep with the chorus of moaning and groaning cows in […]
Doris makes it to Denmark!
Day 05: Torp, Denmark. I have to say last nights camping place was probably one of the best we’ve had. Quiet and with the soft sounds of the river flowing besides us we both managed a really good sleep. Fortunately though we managed to get up early too, before 8AM! Coffees and showers done and […]
Interrogated by the German Drug Squad
Day 04: Sittensen, Germany. Remember me saying that we were coming back out into Europe to do what we do best, and that was napping until noon? Well today we nearly put that into practice. A mixture of heavy rain battering down on the top of Doris and the inconsiderate Italian dicks next door that […]
Dutch Venice: The Beautiful Village of Giethoorn
Day 03: Giethoorn, Holland. We thought last night couldn’t have got any better. In a prime location, for free, with little road traffic noise and not many people around. Just as we began to settle for the night… …frogs. Ever heard a frog at night? If you haven’t, all you need to know is that […]
DORIS MAKES IT BACK TO EUROPE!
We’re back in Europe and I couldn’t be happier. It was only four weeks ago I was living a nightmare with Doris breaking down and having to be recovered from Germany back home to the UK. Now we’re back in Doris and we’re back in Holland. A little rewind… We’ve done some bits whilst we’ve […]
The Most Humiliating Day of my Life
Day 22: Berlin, Germany. Still in Berlin, Germany. As you’ll likely know, seems as nearly 500 of you read yesterday’s blog, yesterday was the most frustrating day of my life. We hoped for a better day today and well? Today was the most humiliating day of my life. Even worse than that time I ran away […]
The Most Frustrating Day of my Life
Day 22: Still in Berlin. I want to start this blog by saying I do not for one second take for granted the opportunities I have been presented. To be able to travel Europe in a motorhome is a luxury, and one I worked hard to achieve. That said, today has been the most frustrating […]
Cycling the Abandoned Berlin Airport
Day 20: Berlin, Germany. Still. Having the disaster we had yesterday with Doris not starting and ya being forced to stay here in Berlin for another 2 nights, there was no agenda this morning. However, with the bright blue sky, glaring sun, we were up, showered and caffeinated by 9AM. Out on our bikes before […]
