    My daughter used to live in Freiburg. It is a great town. You can get a bus to a cable car which takes you to a great viewing point. Unfortunately it was winter and after we went up the mountain it was freezing. So we went into the cable car station for a beer to shelter and the return cable car was cancelled due to high winds. We had to wait and drink more beer until the bus came to pick us up. We stayed on a great campsite in the motorhome in Freiburg. Cheers Mick

    Another enjoyable instalment of your European Road Trip, thanks for sharing it with us. The Black Forest looks a stunning area to visit and the roads getting there were so quiet. Laughing along with you Iain at the name of your destination and wondered if you would resist the temptation to have a bit of “Carry On….” Humour 🤣. The both of you are very relaxed and natural on camera, which makes your vlogs all the more enjoyable for us to watch. Look forward to the next instalment 👍

    Looks like you had a great time, never realised how expensive Cuckoo clocks are. School boy humour was great and free dishwasher which I've never seen before. Think the best Macid's view we have been in has to be Monaco looking out over the marina behind the palace but yours looked much better on the outside. Cheers K.

    • @VantasticAdventures
      @VantasticAdventures  10 месяцев назад +1

    We stayed in Frieburg a few years ago over Christmas, we went in the fancy McDonalds ( there wasn't much else open on Christmas eve) and a guy tripped up on his way back from the counter and spilled his fries on the floor, the lady from the counter came to sweep them up and he was trying to eat them off the floor while she was trying to sweep them up ! it is a great place though.

    Another great video, shame about those pods which had been damaged by fire.
    Looks a nice campsite - not seen free dishwasher on a site before!
    Great beer selection too 🍻
    Loved the cuckoo clock shop!
    The model railway looked good - you don’t see them around so much nowadays.
    Have a lovely weekend,
    All the best. David & Rachel 👍

      Feldberg. Highest mountain in Black Forest

    • @VantasticAdventures
      @VantasticAdventures  10 месяцев назад

      Thanks Steve 🥰 The travel card was brilliant, when we checked in there was a form to complete at reception which is then signed by the campsite and they give you a card which is valid for the duration of your stay and this allows you to use the public transport for free. We used it on the bus, train and trams and just showed it to the driver or ticket inspector when they come round. Really great way to travel without using the van or a car and of course you can then also sample the local beer 🍺😁👍

    Did you keep the Pop Top up in that storm? We’re never sure how far we can push it!

    • @VantasticAdventures
      @VantasticAdventures  10 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, the pop top was fine, we slept up top too, apart from the rain battering the side it wasn't too noisy. The van was slightly sheltered by the trees but the roof was absolutely fine, we have only had to shut it once before in Devon on a cliff top in a storm when the wind was 60mph + but otherwise it has been all good 😊👍

      @Mondo0126 10 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you. Good to know. We’ve not encountered strong winds on our travels yet (surprising as we’re in Northern Scotland) so good to know the pop top is fairly robust.

      Hello Gill 🙂 We did book in advance but only the day before, it was busy but there were some people turning up without booking and they managed to get a pitch, it's a big site and they had lots of room. There is also a site closer to the lake just in front but we found this slightly too close to each other on the pitches. It's a lovely area, enjoy 🥰
