The last two days we have driven quite long distances here in southern Italy. The day before yesterday we drove from Sicily to Tropea on the east coast of Calabria and yesterday we continued north-east to Taranto. Sometimes we've ended up in the middle of towns and villages, and the fact that it's crowded to drive with a motorhome on the city streets is of course just the first name.

The advantage of a motorhome is that you are not restricted to charter destinations or places where there are hotels. Today, we started the journey south from Buggerru, travelling on breathtakingly beautiful roads through the mountains, with many impressive views of the sea.

Today we drove across Sardinia, from Cala Gonone in the east to a campsite in Porto Torres in the north-west. The plan is to follow the west coast southwards from here. When we left Cala Gonone we saw a lot of really mighty mountains. Since then the road has been flatter and less exciting.

Mountain roads at Calanche in Corsica! Driving around Calanche Di Piana is beyond explanation. These mountain roads in Corsica cannot be found anywhere else in Europe. So narrow that encounters are tough and 400 metres of cliffs on the side. How cool!

Roads in western Corsica are really dramatic! On the road (D81) from Calvi to Porto. I mean, what roads! We thought we were driving on dramatic roads around Verdon Gorge, but this one in Corsica broke records. The cliffs aren't as steep, but the roads are narrower and worse and cooler! Join us on the roads of western Corsica.

Today we drove through a desert landscape in Spain. It is barren and mountainous and hardly any vegetables anywhere. Sometimes the landscape can be almost beautiful. Sometimes it feels rather ghostly. You sometimes wonder if you are on the moon.

After a nice morning in the sun with our friends Åsa and Sverker in Cascais outside Lisbon, we headed south. We rolled over the 25 April bridge, named after revolution day, and continued on the motorway down to the Algarve coast. The first goal was to get some LPG! We weren't keen on getting a fourth LPG tube, so we listened to the tip about a refuelling station in Boliqueime.

We have now driven from Gothenburg to France. Night-black motorways through Denmark, windy sea between Rödby - Puttgarden and mile after mile together with all the trucks through Germany. Then some confusing roundabouts through Holland, driving on freshly lit motorways through Belgium and then into France, where we now drive among villages and cows in the countryside.

Then we were off! We got up at six o'clock this morning to unpack the last things and clean the boat. We worked intensively all morning and while we were carrying out the last box, the new tenants called ... then they were in the marina with a car and trailer and four friends to help carry!
