All that’s left to do is assess how I feel. And that’s a complex question. Without doubt and despite the mechanical challenges of recent years, Europe and by extension, the motorhome, is my happy place. It’s where I’ve always felt at home.
2026 Days 86 to 89 – London
Awake in London! A couple of days early, but London nonetheless.
2026 Day 84 & 85 – Murphy’s Law
Not even close to the plan.
2026 Day 83 – Richmond – Hi Ted!!!
I’ve yet to meet anyone who hasn’t fallen for the charm of the Ted Lasso. On this our last trip, I put it to Himself that a visit to Ted Lasso’s Richmond was non negotiable. It took a bit of planning, but today’s the day.
2026 Day 82 – Windsor Castle – Again!
Well isn’t this a bonus: we’re revisiting Windsor!
2026 Day 80 & 81 – Knole
Would we even be in England if we didn’t go to a wonderful National Trust property? Of course not! We’re at Knole today, exploring its 600+ year history.
2026 Day 78 & 79 – Calais
The day’s plan was simple: arrive in the morning, have a last delicious lunch, see the Calais dragon, a new addition since our last visit, and enjoy the local sights. Am I surprised that it doesn’t go to plan?
2026 Day 77 – Wimereux, Cap Gris Nez & Wissant
Wimereux, Cap Gris Nez & Wissant – it sounds like we’ve travelled miles today, doesn’t it? In reality it’s a series of short hops along the Opal Coast, a mere 24 km in total.
2026 Days 75 & 76 – Boulogne sur Mer
Boulogne sur Mer beckons with the promise of a beautiful cathedral, a fortified Haute Ville and, very excitingly, Europe’s largest aquarium.
2026 Days 73 & 74 – Merlimont & Le Touquet
A short hop down the coast, Le Touquet is buzzing under blue skies. A northern coast holiday hotspot, a mere 260 km north of Paris, Le Touquet is bursting with boutiques, jewellery shops, restaurants, gorgeous Belle Epoque houses and a surprising number of private casinos.
