Hello and welcome to my Travel Blog.
I suppose we better begin with some introductions - my name is Angela and this blog is about my travels across Europe with hubby Keith in our Motorhome - The Gloombuster! (Actually it's Gloombuster2 really cos as you will see Gloombuster is brand spanking new! But Gloombuster2 doesn't sound quite the same.....)

We have been motorhomers for many years, our first vehicle was a Type 2 VW camper back in the early eighties and now we have our 4th motorhome and wouldn't have it any other way.
We are now both retired (well mostly but I'll tell you more about that later), but still young enough to enjoy the traveling life, with time to stay a little longer in the places we really like.
We're now getting ready for a 2 month trip across Europe with Croatia being our ultimate destination. We have booked our crossing on the Eurotunnel on Sunday 7th September we have a few ideas about the route, our ACSI and Camping Cheque campsite books  ready and that's it - we go! I do get a lot of people ask if we book our sites before we go, but that takes away the spontaneity of the trip so we just have a rough idea of where are heading, find a campsite or Camperstop at the place we think looks good and turn up! It's usually works very well.
So far on our travels we have toured the UK, France, Spain and Portugal, so venturing south-east across Europe is going to be a new experience for us.
That's it for now - my very first blog post! 
Over the next few weeks I will be sharing with you our preparation ( how many toilet rolls to take and other such delightful details!!!) and then our journey across the continent.
As a blogging newbie I would love to hear from you with feedback about my blog and do ask me any questions or offer suggestions about what you might like to know
Speak to you again soon! Angie
