Records of our travels are available in two forms. The more detailed form, used from 2006 onwards, is a journal describing daily activities during a trip. Comments on terrain, commerce, geography, weather, birds, animals and anything else we think interesting are included. Journal entries contain some photographs and there are
links from journal pages to fact sheets and to photograph collections. Journals are available for 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 (we did not tour in 2007).
Concise records are presented in trip summaries briefly describing the route followed but also detailing performance of the towing vehicle and caravan under conditions experienced on each trip. Alterations made to each caravan are described. A few photographs in each summary show the towing vehicle and caravan in use for that journey. Fuel bought and fuel consumption recorded are included as well as the cost of caravan park sites. To open a journal or a summary click on the word "Journal" or "Summary" in blue for each entry below. Entries are arranged with the most recent at the top. |
