Do we need an Umwelt sticker for the Moselle? - we are thinking of going the end of July but are wondering if a) if we need an Umwelt sticker and b) Non acceptance of UK Credit cards, if it is going to be worth the hassle......

We are currently touring Germany and have found it is not a case of non acceptance of credit cards they just don't take Visa only MasterCard.

Fuel economy
Since leaving Leeds we have travelled at around 55 to 60 mph and even with lots of queueing in England (5 miles at Dartford even at 21:00 Friday ) and lots of aircon my instrument reads 29.6 avg which I've never witnessed before. So speed is everything or less of it. I'm probably getting 27 in the real world which is superb for the weight.

Only just spotted this thread,I convinced you eh :) I do geta bit excited about Germany. Two weeks is far too short a time imho but we like, very much, Bernkastel Kues (tend to stay at Kesten and cycle in, Graach is a good option too) Zell, either stellplatz, last time we stayed at Reil and cycled to Zell too and that was great with other lovely places on route I seem to remember Punderich was very nice. Cochem is always popular though not so easy to stop at. Neumangen Dhron is another place. So many!! Have a lovely time, Janie and Bob :)

Now at Zell having visited Globus, what a great shop ! All sorts of beer in plastic crates and so cheap food too seems well priced. Rain is threatening with bursts of thunder but scorching Sun between.

Diesel @ €1:31 and Aldi /Lidl also share the globus site

Andy from the stellplatz at Zell if you go down to the campsite the dump is just before it on the left, you can also use the washing machines if you need to.
Hope the weather gets better for you, I cant imagine what you could do on a wet day with all that beer on board.:wink: :rofl:
Have a good trip. (y) Bob.

Just had a quick explore and the other. Stellplatz is only on two levels not five as I'd read in a review . It has a three berth service point with water at €1 for about 90 litres.
It is mainly on grass so the spot where we are is better IMHO
Heading for koblenz now via cochem , if cochem has a space we'll stop
If not try again on the way back

We are now at the koblenz Mosel Rhine confluence and was lucky to get the corner plot outside the campsite
Two nights €35 inc electric
Watching the ships do a handbrake turn out of the Rhine into the Mosel is a sight to behold

A hundred yards from us is a water taxi €1:30 each to cross
