The Curious Adventures of the Cat in the Camper Van
Our motorhome travelling adventures around the world with a cat called Jigsaw
We really don't have a fascination with anything morbid, honest we don't! Yes we enjoy the Nordic dramas but we do worry that you think we are just scouting around Spain looking for ghost towns, we're not! Sadly, they exist though, especially following the civil war. The road across from Morella to Belchite was as… Continue reading Via Verde to Valencia
..... solar panel..... Reflecting on a few things and some news from home, this is what we decided. If you don't look for the sunshine in life you are only going to feel flat 🙂 After our surreal experiences at the outdoor sculpture park, when we arrived in Girona we felt like we needed a… Continue reading Life is like a …….
Salvador Dalà has his fingerprints all over this area of Spain. Born in Figueres, he made it home to his fantastical museum, 10 years work, designing an incredible theatre of work, in an old run down theatre. It was a work of art as a building let alone the vast array of works inside. His… Continue reading Surrealism at it’s Best!
So many people are concerned about how we do our washing when we are on tour, that we thought we'd oblige and share the vast array of options available, from outside supermarkets, to Aires and campsites. There are also pretty decent showers, loos etc so we can sustain an acceptable level on the personal side… Continue reading Widow Twanky World
Seems like its been a short interlude since arriving back from the USofA and leaving again. Thankfully Macron saw sense (rare for modern day politicians) and opened the borders again so plans could be made to chase the milder climates once more. Naturally we've been trying to recall what we've been up to the past… Continue reading Our Place on this Earth
In terms of State Parks we’ve been to several for ‘hikes’ as they’re called here, strolls to you and I. We’ve seen so much diversity, more Osprey, Ibis, all kinds of Heron, different varieties of Woodpecker, Mockingbirds, Buzzards and Hawks. Unable to photograph with the phone but cast in the memory. We were also incredibly… Continue reading The Panhandle to The Stove
Changing US States and driving through Alabama and Mississippi was a different experience to the states further north. Neither states are particularly touristy, there are some small towns and of course The Natchez Trace Parkway is a well trodden route from Natchez up to Memphis then across to Nashville. It struck us both that it… Continue reading Southern Belles & The Blues
Heading away from The Smoky Mountains and Blue Ridge Parkway we headed South West, waterfall hunting, passing some unusual roadside Americana. Rather than breaking ourselves in gently, we arrived at Tallulah Gorge State Park. There are over 1000 State Parks all over the US as well as 61 National Parks. We've always found them to… Continue reading My Name is Tallulah
Heading inland away from the beaches the temperature started to fall as the elevations increased, we were heading to the mountains. First stop was Chapel Hill, another uni town, this one The University of North Carolina. It just happened to be match day so everyone was in their pale blue colours, it's incredible the scale… Continue reading Happy Thanksgiving Y’all
Being an ex Goth, Nick is a real fan of cemeteries... actually, some of the monuments make for superb infra red photographs. So off we went to wander the enormous Bonaventure Cemetery. As a stop off on our way to Charleston, it's Savannah's oldest, and packed with angelic monuments and obelisks reaching for the sky… Continue reading Charming Charleston and Beyond
