Great stuff Ringo. What's the name of the campsite where you were pitched next to the river?

Were regulars in France but this year will be the first time in the van. Like yours its got an AAZ so hopefully less chance of engine bother. Im a bit nervous going all that way in the old beast, but its gotta be done!

By searching satellite view on google maps I found the spot:

Route de Mailly-la-Ville
89660‎ Mailly-le-Château
France

I don't remember the campsite name. When I get home I will try and find out.
Very cool place - a complete chance we found it after following a very old sign off the main road.

You and me Bren!

She's full of spirit and I wouldn't have her any other way. Even though the terrible twos are here big time

Can't wait to shoe her the vid when she's old enough to be embarrassed

I'm a very nervous driver and constantly worry about the van breaking down even though the van is tip top. However, It has to be done as you rightly say!
