Choosing the RV

Choosing the RV is part of the adventure.  Go to the website http://www.ideamerge.com/ and click RV Rental Europe. In 2008 we chose a Compact Standard Globecar Globescout Fiat Ducati that was perfect for the two of us.  For this trip we decided on a Dethleffs A 68 Sunlight.  Under "Customer Reviews" you can still read our review of 07September2008.  We found reading the reviews very helpful.  There are tips from fellow travellers about what to bring, what to rent, where they went and much more. 
Now to insert a photo of the A 68 Sunlight ... here goes:

Getting started

I am excited to start my very first blog and to share with you the excitement of planning and then taking you along with John, Willy and myself on an RV trip we have planned for September 2011 through France and Spain.
Last fall we decided to go on this trip, booked our flights, put a deposit on the motorhome and have been researching campsites, many of which we were able to book in 2010.  We have only five more campsites to reserve ... so with the help of our trusty TomTom GPS with navigation for Europe that we used in 2008 we hope to find our way without too much trouble (you know what I mean, eh) ... little side trips are always at the waiting.
Hope you will enjoy this adventure through France and Spain with us.
