We wanted to leave the caravan somewhere so we could go to the Florida Keys for Christmas. Of course all the Keys RV parks were full so we had to try and free camp somewhere….. semi-legal and without the caravan it would be a lot easier. We found a space in the Florida City trailer …

North Florida, USA
First stop – Cape Canaveral – 16 Dec 2019. Space-X (CEO Elon Musk) was having a launch that night off Cape Canaveral something we all wanted to see, but mainly Derek being our techie guy.

Taking this down time to catch up with posting photos. John Denver put this area on the map for us. Almost heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River, ….. so we had to drive south to Florida via Virginia – the skyline drive and the Blue ridge Park Way.

Washington DC, USA
My favourite USA city so far. I am getting very behind in our travel diary, better start posting photos before I forget where they were taken, the whole point of this website.

New York, USA

Vermont to New York in Autumn
One of the main reasons for travelling clockwise around the USA was to be on the eastern side, Vermont area for Autumn. I love the colours. Montpelier, Capital of Vermont. Vermont in autumn, absolutely gorgeous. We walked two small sections of the Appalachian trail, its 3,500 km long. At the second section we …
Detroit Michigan, USA
Back in the USA Motown and motor vehicles. We were not even planning to stop in Detroit but I am so glad we did, what an interesting city. The weather was sunny, warm and humid, just like home, for some reason I imagined Detroit to always be cold and grey. We camped at the fairgrounds …
