Try-Out in The Ardennes
Finally made myself that weekend free to see how- and if all works perfect with the caravan i bought this summer.
It’s an old one, so had to renew the electric, gas, and water system, but beside that, all is in good condition, and after a day of cleaning and polishing it looks nice.

I choose to go to the ardennes in Belgium, cz. i know that area and because of the hils. I wanted to know if the combination (put it behind the van) is in balance, cz. next summer will go for a big trip !
I went to a campsite in the village Polleur, with the surprising name: Camping Polleur.
Anyway it’s a nice camping in a valley, with a swimmingpool and nice sanitary service, a small restaurant and
a terrasse.

On the way to polleur.

Ruïne of a castle near Polleur.

Saterdaymorning when i woke-up made fresh caffé (by hand) and took the bike to get fresh bread in the village.
It was very quiet that weekend cz. summervacation just ended.
In the afternoon i visit the ruine of an old castle near Polleur and eat soup and frites from the restaurant-bar.

The camping (looking downhill).

Terrasse.

Playgarden and pool.

The sanitair buildings.

Inside, the toilets, the showers, the toilets and the the lavabo are all very clean.

Sunday went to Malmedy on the bike, was a hard trip cz. of all the hills.
When i was back in the caravan i decided to stay another night and to visit Spa. Spa is a city jus 15 km from Polleur, so went on the bike again.
Spa is famouse from the sources of mineralwater.

In the centre.

Anyway it was a nice trip and in the centre i eat and had a drink near the Casino
The casino has a nice garden at the front with many flowers.

At the end of the afternoon i drove back home and took the secundary roads
and stopped for a drink and to make a quick but healthy salad.

Anyway, i look forward to go on a loooooong trip with the caravan.
I’m thinking of a name for the caravan,maybe you have a suggestion ?
