Iberian Tour - Autumn 2022
So we have our van and we have already doubled the 2,500 miles she had on the clock when we bought her. In addition to our trip up to the Isle of Mull, she has already been to Glastonbury plus several other festivals as well as a couple of visits to the coast.
We have no set agenda. Just a vague plan to turn right at Calais and head fairly rapidly south through France before slowing down the pace and making our way anti-clockwise round the Iberian peninsula, exploring as we go. Lisa has recenty acquired an Irish EU passport but in the post-Brexit era my UK passport limits me to 90 days in the Schengen area out of every 180, so we will just have to see how far we get in that period of time before we have to head back home in early December.
Angles Morts, Crit'Air, UK and beam deflector stickers have all been duly attached.
I think we have all the gear we might need. Essentials like Tonic Water and Tea Bags have been stowed in the garage with the leccy bikes. Le Shuttle has been booked for months.
