We retired early from a professional job. We are living the dream in our caravan going where the road and the sunshine takes us. We work part time for the caravan club leading European tours and inspecting overseas sites. We have been to some amazing places and met some amazing people. We have camped in 30 Countries in the past twelve months-we are running out of Europe! Roll on the next 30 Countries!

Caravan Club Transylvanian Tour. Camping Lake Bled Slovenia
We arrived at Lake Bled yesterday. The roads were brilliant but it was a hard drive due to the rain. The surface water on the motorways was unbelievable. We arrived at Camping Bled which is a superb campsite that had been turned into a mud bath. The rain didn't stop all day or night. We had a boat trip booked on a rowing boat to Bled Island at 9 am but did it stop us?. Oh no. Put on the waterproofs and look like idiots and off we went. I'm really pleased that we did though. This area is so pretty. Unfortunately I can only imagine what it would be like if the sun was shining! The boat journey was amazing. There was this spooky mist coming off the lake as the air temperature was about 9 degrees and the water was 18 degrees! Mad or what?!
In the afternoon we went for a stroll round Bled itself which is quite Touristy. The most exciting things that we bought were new waterproof jackets as we discovered yesterday our old faithfully were no longer waterproof ( what a way to find out!) Lol
Anyhow I would recommend this place but not the weather! Italy and Venice here we come tomorrow.
