    So far, you are visiting some of my memorable times on holiday when my daughter was a youngster. She’s just turned 52 so you boys have opened some lovely memories. My daughter and I have just come back from Orlando after getting caught up in the hurricane. Quite frightening at times especially listening to the young alligators that are in the lake behind the villa. After the worst of it and having had no electricity for three days, the pool was full of frogs that had got in through the damaged lanai. Glad we managed to get home this last Friday.

Love Bourton on the Water it is so pretty and can’t believe I managed to walk under that bridge with my daughter.

  • @helensparks7631
    @helensparks7631 Год назад

    We used to have a Swift Escape 685. We called ours Stitch as it had blue accents. Loved it but found it more and more restrictive not being able to park anywhere. ( we live in the south east) campsites down here were getting so expensive too and hard to find availability once everything opened back up. We loved it but with work couldn't get away as much as we'd like. Ended up selling it while prices were still so high. We will rent one at some point though as it was really fun.

  • @mrsc8044
    @mrsc8044 Год назад

    My husband’s an retired police traffic officer so plenty of driving qualifications and experience. He prefers to put the ramps behind the front wheels and slowly reverse onto them - the accelerator is slightly more controllable in reverse and when the handbrake takes over from the footbrake the van settles onto rather than off the ramps. One final tip - the rear of the van sits higher than the cab. With this in mind, ramps can be avoided on occasions by parking with the cab facing up the slope. View, weather, habitation door, size of slope and privacy considerations will influence your decision on a case by case basis. I really hope you enjoy holiday. So far you’ve taken to the motorhome like ducks to water.

    Afternoon guys. We are loving watching your van life vlogs, we love touring around with our caravan and Cornwall is our favourite place to visit. The coastline is amazing with some fantastic little places to stop for teas and ice creams. One of our caravan/ Scouting tips for adding the ultimate British touch to your Smores....
    large marshmallows between 2 chocolate Oaties (Aldi hobnobs) And be careful, because once you've had 1, You'll want S'more 😁🤣
    Enjoy the van life guys 🚐🏖️

  • @livingourbestlifelyndaandt3948

    Use truck lords navigation , u can add dimensions of van, pretty good at ensuring u don't go down roads not suitable for van size. When hooking up to electric, do van first then board , so ur not holding a live cable and take off opposite way.

Your so lucky to have each other and then to have your experiences on tape is priceless and will be for those beautiful girls when they grow up.
    Thank you so much letting us be apart of your family time. It means so much 😭xo

    My sister and I were just talking about s’mores this afternoon: she doesn’t care for them because she doesn’t like marshmallows, and it’s been so long since I’ve had one I barely remember what they were like, though I’m sure I enjoyed them. that camper van looks like awfully close quarters to me, but then again I suppose that’s part of the fun of it. Not sure I would sleep well in a situation like that, being a rather tall person.
