Sorting Out Camp Sites
Great day sorting out camp sites
When I made the booking through the Caravan Club I asked them, inadvertently, to book sites that did not take tents, a mistake on my side. This meant that 7 of the 14 camp sites booked I could not use as I can only use a tent. The doors of caravan are not wide enough for the wheelchair to go through.
When I was told of this mistake I was horrified, and I must admit, thought not yet an another hurdle in the way. I even wondered if some higher being was telling me not to do this challenge. I guess we all get like that.
To try and put things right, today, Emmanuelle and I spent the whole afternoon on the internet, can you imagine life without the internet? without it, I could not arrange this challenge’ tracking down suitable camping sites. I soon found out how many caravan sites do not take tents, even though some do.
We have now successfully booked all the camp sites from Lands End up to Glasgow, but I am cheating, my 61st birthday will now be spent at ‘Garstang’. This is a remarkable Free trade town 40 mins from Blackpool. I am treating the team to 2 nights in an apartment.
May I subject that you take the time out to visit their web site at http://www.garstang.net/BusinessPages/six_arches_caravan_park.
On my travels through the internet for camp sites I approached many, and 2 of them gave me my nights free because of the challenge I was embarking upon. I would now like to say ‘Thank You’ in the only way I can, by adding them to my blog. They are
