A photo of the outside from Inside

Currently considering a boat would have been a better choice as its pretty much rained nonstop here in the Malvern Hills.

Moved a little along the Algarve to Parc de Campiso on Ihla Da Porto. Great location for commercial plane spotters - runway is across the water from here. Won't be needing Flightradar 24 for a couple of days

So this is why our payload is marginal!

Having put the fully laden MoHo on the weighbridge on the eve of our U.K. departure, (thanks Heathcoat Factory, Tiverton £2.70 front, back and all up), I knew we were at the limit, so after finding not one but two of these it has all become clear.

The resident gym bunny will be missing her twice weekly CrossFit sessions, so to make amends has a full workout regime planned, although she assures me that the 6kg kettle bell has been left at home - I’ll keep looking though!

I used to take mine with me and do my workouts outside the van,because we used to go abroad for 90days and you can't let your workouts lapse for that length of time!
 
We came through airport security last week and had a bag pulled for examination as the X-ray wasn’t clear.

Next to us a family were waiting for their “pulled” bag. It transpired that their 17 year old son, training to try to join the Royal Marines, had placed his 12kg weight in the rucksack so that he could go running with it to improve his leg strength while on holiday.

The security guys thought it looked like a land mine on the
X-ray.

This is my mobile physio gym. I get some very strange looks when I do my exercises outside the motorhome. I’m trying to recover from torn tendons in my shoulder. I never thought I’d say this but it makes me appreciate the Comfortmatic gearbox. I don’t think I could manage the manual gears going over the mountains.
 
Quick snap before we left Lepe Beach, New Forest today. Really doesn't do it justice - even saw the coastguard helicopter drop a crew member on to a motor yacht, and then pick them up again. 20230428_185515.jpg

Same here with the 9 speed ZF auto box. Going up the climb from Briançon towards Turin - more like a ladder than a road! - it came into its own with the ‘Power’ mode engaged. It’s also superb when using the cruise control on the Autostrada - set it to 65km/h in ‘’ECO’ mode and relax.

40mph? On the Autostrada?🤔
 
Next 2 nights at the Costa Do Vizir beach village, Porto Covo.

Got the 2nd to last pitch as it's a Portuguese bank holiday weekend and it's rammed. Still a long queue of hopefuls outside the gate waiting for a space.
