We still do not like packing up and going home, we like the freedom of it all.

Enjoy yourselves

I'm sure I'll be buying those things and I'll just not tell him the price haha eeeee living the dream in my caravan. I think people who would rather go abroad are Crazy the freedom and indepence my eldest has is great the simple things like asking her to go to shop for milk makes her feel so grown up no where else could we do that... Brilliant and she now asks if we need anything from shop because she loves to do it!

Fantastic that you are enjoying your first time away in a caravan, we went on our first trip this month and i absolutely loved it, just wish i could go away more..

We could have taken a bit more spending money but we had a great time regardless, especially love cosying into the seating area of an evening with the interior lights on... xx

Enjoyed tenting,
