Our first RV - now what?!

I'll add one more thing that's minor. Its about cooking and eating. Realize that you don't need complete service for 8 unless you have 8 travelers. There's no place to keep dirty dishes, so wash them when you're finished eating and put them away. Corelle is unbreakable, unless one falls out of an overhead cabinet and lands on the floor at the perfect angle. (Don't ask). Then you will have a lot of very sharp pieces the size of a sewing needle to pick up. Melamine is unbreakable. However, if you pour boiling hot coffee into a melamine coffee cup you can watch a crack form immediately around the seam where the thin sides meet the thicker bottom. The coffee forms a nice 360 degree hot puddle and moves fast. Tervis Tumblers are double walled for insulation, really unbreakable, and come in many sizes, with or without removable handles. And some fit nicely in the cup holders in the doghouse in my 'C'.
