  • Heading South in Italy, A Crash, A Castle, and Fire!

    , , ,

    So after a day in Venice, we are heading south down the east side of Italy, the back of the boot, if you will. Our first stop was at a Farm Camp south and just outside of Venice. I was greeted by a friendly, English Speaking, host and we got checked in, and led to…

  • A Castle and Clouds

    ,

    We left the industrial campground, which was surrounded by a lumber yard and other businesses, but still offered some nice views. We backtracked up the road to a bakery we had spotted earlier. We needed more bread, picked up some breakfast pastries, and some pretzels—renowned here in Bavaria, Germany. We enjoyed our breakfast in the…

  • The Black Forest

    ,

    We left the Wild Winery, not all that impressed. We both felt like the camping part is an after thought. We continued south in Germany headed into and through The Black Forest. I had seen along the route, the World’s Largest Cuckoo Clock, so I thought it would be a surprise for Kasey. Unfortunately, we…

  • Making Our Way Into Germany

    ,

    We were a bit disappointed that we didn’t see more of the Dutch Sahara, but we were excited to move on to our second country. A bit of a bummer here, as passing into Germany felt like going from North Carolina to South Carolina, barely a sign to let us know. We did find one…

  • The Dutch Sahara

    ,

    We were finally on this big Empty Nest Adventure, and our first stop was a place we didn’t even know about! We had done some research on places in the Netherlands, but we never thought we would spend the whole first month there. We planned to head south and west, hitting Belgium and then Luxembourg…

  • We Are On Our Way! Or So We Thought.

    First off, just want to let everyone know that we use an App called Park4Night. This app looks up places to camp and to park for the night. What is the difference? Camping is what you think it is, a campground provides a site, called a pitch over here in Europe, might have some extras…

  • We Need A Break, and to Re-Arrange

    By the first weekend in The Netherlands, we had realized we had crammed a lot of stuff in this little camper, and where we were putting may have not been the best idea. So, we decided to take the weekend off, and relax a bit, and work through some of our set up. We also…

  • Rodney’s Big Shopping Day

    Yesterday was all about Kasey wearing herself out in the second largest IKEA. Today, Rodney gets to go shopping – Motorcycle Shopping! Actually, all the shopping had pretty much been done, all online. After searching along side with the motorhome, I had to adjust, as it was easier for Europe-Roadtrip.com to register the bike in…

  • Big Shopping Day for Kasey: IKEA

    Today would be Kasey’s Day. She was looking forward to shopping at an IKEA in Europe. Did we pick the right spot, as we were headed to the Second Largest IKEA, only behind the main store! She had her list in hand, all I could do was push and load the cart, and make sure…

  • Our First Day Adventure

    We were dropped off at the front door of Hotel Ibis, suitcases piled on the sidewalk. Salsa needed a potty break since her last one was yesterday, and in a different country and continent. I secured a luggage cart, and we loaded up looking to check in early, It was just about noon local time,…
