Tam and Toby ~~ Hunting Zorba .....Take two.

[Northernraider]

So after the disastrous start to the trip last week ....Toby having a breakdown and a few days in rehab he's now feeling himself again ....so it's all systems go

Tunnel is booked for 9.20am Sunday 27th so a couple of days to get down there and then on to Belgium hopefully for Sunday night.
Final destination is still hopefully Greece via Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Albania and then Greece .... obviously if any covid situations arise that route is subject to change but will cross that bridge when I come to it

I've a polar steps trip tracker activated if you want real time updates ...but I will as usual post the pics and details here

Polarsteps

Polarsteps is the personal travel log in your pocket.

[Paul and Kate]

Good luck this time Tam.

 

[BreweryDave]

..but I will as usual post the pics

........just leave out the churches, monasteries and art galleries this time, and add a few more liquid hostelries and bikini clad women

 

[WESTY66]

I think you’ve just had your glitch (wheel hitting kerb) for this mission! Good luck

 

[Onemanandhisdog]

It's worth skipping Eastenders to get on your travels, better luck this time.

No idea yet will get as far as I can before getting bored then I'll stop.

 

[Northernraider]

So I've stopped for tonight just 6 miles south of Berwick upon Tweed ....my usual haunt down here is no longer available but found another one on park4night which is a nice flat carpark in the middle of nowhere.
I'll post up the location and a few pics etc tomorrow as always ...there's 2 other campers here for the noght.

Time for a wee cup of coffee ....
Toby drove well and had a chance to try all my new lights ....that spotlamp is bright lol I can see for miles .

Filled up with diesel just south of Edinburgh so ill put all the miles and fuel etc on the thread in morning too as once again I'd like to keep track of miles and fuel costs on the trip.

Had an influx of followers on polar steps think there's about 30 odd now.

Which way are you going through Germany ? and how long do you expect to be there ? I noted a few FLT spots that may be of interest to you.

 

[barsteward]

Good Luck Love the idea of Polarsteps, never new it existed but look forward to following your journey.

I've not thought that far ahead yet lol ...probably 2 or 3 weeks but all depends ...never any fixed itinerary...
But spots are always welcome ( except on me bum cause they are nippy )

I know ...it was freezing last night ...ground frost this morning couldn't believe the change from a week ago ... definitely warmer down south no wonder those southerners are softies
