How likely am I to need 30amp and/or water extensions?

I currently have a 25' built-in 30amp plug and a 25' drinking water hose. The trailer is 24' overall so I can park it just behind the service pole and reach... barely.

I will travel for 7-8 weeks this summer and move every 1-3 days. I will see lots of campings of all kinds.

Should I expect that some sites won't allow me to park in a way where I can reach the 30amp service? Worse case I can fill my water tank before I park and last 2-3 days so that's not so bad.

Also should I expect that some parks will only have 50amps? I don't have an adapter for that either. If it happens will they sell the adapter at a reasonable price?
