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 […]
A Sad Day: Doris Dies
Day 20: Berlin, Germany to Berlin, Germany. The title is true. Don’t be alarmed we’re OK. But Doris isn’t. As of right now (830PM) we’re unsure of Doris’ future and what it holds, but all we know is we’re not moving anywhere till Monday. With Berlin being so big and beautiful we wanted to get […]
Historical Berlin
Day 19: Berlin, Germany to Berlin, Germany. This morning we woke up early as we had a horrible smell in the van. That washing, again. Just kidding, we woke up early because we had a tour booked for 11AM and we needed to get the washing done before then so that we didn’t have to […]
Doris’ Makes it to Berlin!
DAY 18: Lubben, Germany to Berlin, the capital. Remember those smelly clothes we were meant to wash about 3 days ago? We’ve still not washed them. That was todays only and main agenda. I’ll spoil it for you now, Doris still stinks. Woken up by heavy rain through the night and the thought of leaving […]
The Waterways of Lubben
Day 17: Weisswasser, Germany to Lubben, Germany. Fortunately, as I’m writing this, we didn’t get eaten by that bear. Although there were, what sounded like, gun shots for about an hour or so last night. I’d again expertly figured out how we could position ourselves in the van should the gunshots find their way to […]
The Instagram Famous Bridge, Devils Bridge.
Day 16: Pirna, Germany to Weisswasser, Germany. A mirrored morning to yesterday with the sun beaming through our windscreen waking us up. If you’re unfamiliar with our Doris’ layout, she has a pull down bed. We drop the front seats and pull the bed down, it’s the feature that made us choose a Hymer in […]

Saxon Switzerland: Europes Hidden Gem.
Day 15: Pirna, Germany to Pirna Germany. Not quite a zero day with Doris but we have ended up parking up the van in the same location two nights running. A first for us, but necessary for the day ahead. We woke up early this morning with the sun absolutely glaring through Doris’ windscreen. I […]
Europes Best Kept Secret?
Day 14: Prague, Czech Republic to Pirna, Germany. We had planned to get up early to cycle into the city centre but when we woke around 6AM it was raining, heavily. With the rain on the roof and tired eyes we both went back to sleep without alarms. It was gone 10AM when we woke […]
The Best Cake in the World?
Day 13: Stahlevy to Prague, Czech Republic. Last nights sleep was a little wonky to say the least. We’d parked the van on a slight angle to make sure the bikes were safe and we didn’t really think it was that off level. Turns out it was and when we got up into our bed, […]
