After 3 days on the road we are slowing down pace after driving straight through Belgium, Luxemburg, Germany and Austria. We are now in northern Italy and, as usual, the sun is shining on this side of the Alps. Our campsite is on Lago di Caldonazzo. It's low season so we're in the 'grey wave' of campervanners with very few kids around.
Through the land of windmills and solar panels we continued further south in search of some sun.
Good bye Germany, we will be back ...
It's not often you have snow capped peaks as a backdrop during brekky :) The southern side of the Alps in Italy. Unfortunately our computer has now gone Italian so it was quite challenging uploading this blog in a foreign language.
Driving the 3.5 tonne 'beast'. Note: new central rear view mirror purchased at petrol station on the way. Couldn't the kids have broken something a little less essential??!!
Goodnight ;)
Spectacular scenery all the way through Austria of snow capped peaks and clusters of hamlets in the valleys. Austria is stunning.

Camper park just outside Lucca, FULL!! Mostly of Italians as they love their campervanning on a sunny weekend. Thanks sun for returning after some miserable days! Tonight we are on the boat to Corsica, vive la France!
