RVing in Europe
DW and I just got back from 11 days on a river cruise in Europe. We hit 5 countries and saw lots of RVs. As a matter of fact, there are so many RVs that we saw this sign at the parking lot near the do...

Like the post about Walmart camping is being a pretty accurate description in general of most European type RV camping. In England, the caravan parks mostly look like an RV dealership lot here. Most are very jammed together places as we've been to and seen so many in the recent past. Our son owned a manufacturing company in the Midlands of England and we've toured by auto about 75% of England and Wales and seen them with our own eyes and been in a few. So many are so close together that an extended awning or an opened door is just inches from the next RV. We called it "stacked like cordwood"! I/we chuckle when hearing some people say/complain that the RV sites are toooooo close together here on this side of the pond!
On Monday Sept 22nd, my wifes cousin and his, looks like to be wife soon" will be coming to our home again. His 3rd time here and as many as 3 cousins have come as each has 3-4 weeks of vacation time and their visits start at Chicago O'Hare and then fly on to a different region of the USA and rent a car. It always includes a week or so in West Michigan before going back as this is where his immigrated relation lived beginning in the late 1800's. Last time he flew back out of New York.
He always remarks about how big the RV sites are in the USA and everything else too. They rented a car in Chicago after flying back from Vegas after 2 weeks in LA and SF and then drive around West Michigan. This year are taking the across Lake Michigan high speed catamaran ferry over to Milwaukee and drive back to O'Hare for their flight back to Germany. He want's to move here so bad but his parnets are still alive yet in Germany and he helps take care of them. Sold the family farm that was still in the family and had been passed down since 1721. None of the family members wanted to farm anymore! Sounds familiar!
