24 June 2016
Another good day in Hamburg after a massive thunder and lightening storm for most of the night. We filmed it at 3.00am.
Good walkabout – 2 hours – round most of the town picking up sights missed yesterday and managed to include the Reeperbahn (sex area).
One thing we do regret is missing the sailing of the Queen Mary 2. She left on the 21st for Southampton after a re-fit here in Hamburg. All in all a good 2 days here, would recommend for a short city break.
20 – 21 June 2016 Camping Ludwigsee, Osnabruck
2 days in Osnabruck. Lovely campsite in the middle of the countryside next to a small lake.
Transport into Osnabruck a short walk through fields to the railway station, then an 10 minute train journey to Osnabruck Alstadt station for the old town. Not a lot here but been good to be out of the big cities.
Washed van, did some inside cleaning and caught up with washing clothes.
(lovely well looked after site)
3 Days in Brussels a fab city and a must on your places to visit the town is very secure with police and Army all over, shopping centre’s search everyone with bags. Bus from site to North station 1Hr then a 15 mins walk to the Grand Place.
What fabulous buildings in the Grand Place one of the best we have seen over the years. Sites we have been to include the automium, Basilica, Cathedral, both Grand palace’s, The palais De Justic, with the free lift down to the antique area,
The European Parliament with its visitors centre, The Manneken Pis? Why I don’t know! And lots of streets and shopping areas. I think the highlights were the Grand Square and The Automium what a great piece of engineering and tourist attraction.
A low was that we were the only people to get off at the European Parliament and there were only about 12 people in the place. The city is FULL of immigrants begging.

12/06/2016 Broadhembury
What a wet day today shame we washed the van yesterday but only half the dirt i suppose. Washed again on arrival don’t want the French thinking we is mucky. Drove about on arrival then booked in dis all our washing so nice and clean for moving in the morning. Weather turned out lovely this evening. Don’t be tempted by the Internot here its set to block virtually everything here.
Off we go again into the unknown NORTH this time new places to us…. The evening of 09/06 we had a lovely meal with close friends and came across a picture for the Blog……. due to the devastation of flooding in Keswick we saw a place not to be sat on a rainy day.. keep following us for fun and excitement.
