Hoping you have a great time.

Next time you'll know to take the booze with you Nothing better than a glass of wine or a beer to relax you whilst setting up gets you tight in the holiday spirit I also cook at home and freeze it. It's good in two ways. 1. It cools the fridge down quickly and 2. No cooking whilst away. Another tip is fill bottles with water and freeze them at home then place in the caravan fridge this also gets the fridges temp down quicker but once on site you've got ice cold water to drink You'll learn as you go it's all part of the fun.

Live every day as if it's your last but not at risk to others :-)
