Blog 172 Autotrail Savannah , Vans We 💕2021
By keef and annie hellinger, Dec 30 2021 14.35 pm Frontier I find it interesting that most if not all autotrail vans have 1st nation names, what when i was younger inspired the many cowboy and indians B movies I watched on a Saturday afternoon in black and white #humour When we first started looking for motorhomes to buy after having extensively hired them (which I can whole heartedly advise... motorhoming in cramped spaces is NOT for everyone) #hintsandtips we were looking a

Blog 171 The Eura Mobil Integra, Vans We 💕 Recommended No. 7
By keef and annie hellinger, Dec 30 2021 9.11 am Integra We especially LIKE✅ this version of the Eura Mobil motorhomes although there are many more lines to like Their flagship Integra, is redefining the motor home upper class. The emotionally striking and at the same time functional and safety-oriented lighting design underlines the luxurious character of this liner inside and outside. Ambient lighting and state-of-the-art LED technology compose an impressive light symphony.

Blog 170 Autocruise Rhythm, A Blogger's Viewpoint
By keef and annie hellinger, Dec 29 2021 12.31 pm Living
The Rhythm misses a trick by not having a U-shaped lounge conversion option, as many of its rivals do. The table needs to be wrested from its mount behind the cab seat, which is no easy task. The sofas offer comfy knee rolls, so it’s a squeeze to get your legs under the 67cm-high table, but there are plenty of scatter and end cushions to pamper yourself with. Kitchen

Blog 168 HOLIDAY 2017 Cont. Diary Part 2 The "Big Trip" with pals, March
By keef and annie hellinger, Dec 3 2021 16.56 pm Wednesday 1 March Adelaide to Alice Springs Had the fresh figs for breakfast which were delicious. Another hot sunny day. The campsite staff drove the golf buggy with all our bags to reception and from there we got a taxi to Adelaide airport. Keef & I didn’t recognise it (we had flown from Alice to Adelaide 10 years ago) so it had obviously had a bit of an architectural make-over. Our flight to Alice Springs left at 10.40am & w

By keef and annie hellinger, Dec 2 2021 14.21 pm Between 11th August and 4th Sep 1999 picking up our hired motorhome near Vancouver airport, we had initially stayed in a hotel in a somewhat dodgy area of downtown Vancouver.

Blog 163 HOLIDAY1995 Trip downunder includes a motorhome Queensland (recreated 2021 a retrospective)
By keef and annie hellinger, Dec 1 2021 07.30 am As Moonfruit died on 7th December 2021 my previous HOLIDAY2007-8 site which contained our 1st trip down under in 1995 was migrated by Yell to WIX. I have decided to incorporate it here into my motorhometravelsblog site as an insurance against Yell increasing site charges quite substantially once a year is up, it will then be easy to remove the migrated site. Note this is intrinsically linked to Blog 81, see the 3 associated blo
