May I ask what fabric your side and front awning parts are? Found this on the internet in Germany and I am wondering if this is the same? https://shop.vwcamper.de/markisenvo...icave-ii-markisenzelt?number=SW10367.306&c=71
Thanks

Pretty sure they’re Outwell Hillcrest and Fallcrest tarps. We have the same.

The side panels zip onto the arms of the wind out awning.

They fold away and stow in a chair inside the tailgate bag.

Back in the late 80s I spent a season in Les Deux Alpes. I had a 4x4 Panda which I peddled back and forth over the Laurteret to see my girlfriend in Serre Chev. Good times

Do you know, I also lived the Les Deux Alpes for a season when I was a ski manager for Crystal, lived near the Du Diable lift (red eggs), and when the Gap / Briancon road was closed I often had to take the Col to see my reps in other resorts. Stunning and such good memories!

Landed in Pembrokeshire. Spent the day on the beach and about to get stuck into some steak on the cobb.

Burns farm?

 

[chockswahay]

A fun filled weekend ( ) working on the boat prepping for launch……. look at my shiney prop matron!

Not the most salubrious place to camp but hey it’s warm n cozy and why not?

Hello. It’s on the edge of Narberth. Sort of holiday park thing that’s clean and tidy. I usually prefer something more rustic but the misses insisted and I’m for the easy life! Hoping to cook a roast lamb, spuds etc by the beach on Sunday. Even got the mint sauce in! If it goes Pete Tong there’s always the pub!

Sounds perfect. Enjoy! (Where is this? Love Pembrokeshire)

Is the tent for the dog

Is the tent for the dog

Sadly not - I have to go up in the poptop as he insists on sleeping on the downstairs bed with my wife! This was him 10 secs after I put up my comfy recliner ready for a wee snooze in the sun... The tent is a £40 bike tent from Halfords- perfect for dumping a load of gear in, and packs down pretty small.

Treheli Farm, Wales. Great campsite with basic facilities. Great vibes, chilled atmosphere and those views - wow!

Only downside was the wind on the final day! For the first time in my 4 years of Cali ownership the bellows got caught weirdly enough in the front of the roof when bringing it down (I didn’t notice it because the Iso-Top inner lining folded just fine).

Fortunately I noticed it trapped immediately, and there’s absolutely zero damage, but certainly was a heart drop and a reminder not to be too complacent when bringing the roof down! A window was open, it has a bellows bungee, plus I was pulling in the canvas… Always best for the other half to step out and have a quick check in windy conditions.

Regardless, a great getaway and feeling once again refreshed.
