18 Jul. 16 Camping Knaus Hamburg

Arrived 1200 just as the people on our pitch were leaving so they let us on to the site. Outside the site is a very large IKEA store so we walked round the store and had lunch what an experience so big 1 Hr. to walk round the store. Did some forward booking of sites for our journey back to the UK.

18 Jul. 16 Camping Lugwigsee Osnabruk

Long drive today a 2.15.Hr turned into a 3.10 due to road works and a crash but Hay Hoe its we do. Our second problem was following a live pig transport wagon through lengthy road works and these vehicles have fans to get rid of the smell how pongy Ugh. Got to the campsite booked in and washed a couple of jumper’s lovely sunny 30 C to hot really.

The facilities here are a bit short two toilets and wash basins men’s showers no hot water. There has been a sewage blockage as they were clearing it when we arrived but you kept getting a blast of the stench. You can see why the place has lots of empty pitches at this time of the year. OK for a one night stop that’s all you need Osnabrook is a small place and we have been here once this year.

Off to Lidle for some shopping and a bit of sun bathing in the shade we have a long drive again to Aachen in the morning.
