Euro mini tour

Any news worthy story. Good things to watch at the Cinema, Theatre, on TV or have you read a good book lately?

Euro mini tour

#1

Post by Joeboy »

My son & I are on a 9 day mini tour around Belgium & Bavaria, will post the RE gear we see. So far hundreds of wind turbines in the borders of Scotland and many also on the run South to Dover.

Our campsite on the edge of Brugges has solar pv for the showerblock. Cheers!

Thats a helluva modern shower block design, is it a local authorities run campsite or private?

The above is on the site.

AND we spotted an Ioniq 5, 1 minute out of site. Now waiting on an electric bus after admiring a bungalow with 24 panels on it. A good day i'd say!

Also hundreds of bicyles, Ebikes, Escooters

Sadly my info was off Gus, a diesel showed up. On the upside we rode for free as I had no card, only cash. :D
Bought tickets for the return leg right enough. :lol:
