This feels like holiday to us. The weather is just perfect: 26°C and blue skies. We have shade, we have food – and we made some company. The long talked about full on rest day is here.
We got the blog in order. More importantly, we also spent some time planning the next steps. We had to look a bit further ahead, since we still have the broken front clasp of the roof tent, we needed to find a place to receive shipped parts. We found another great place via rustiek kamperen, which is turning into a bit of an insider tip to all the other German families on parental leave we meet.
Speaking of those: We got to talk to a German family also on their parental leave trip. Johannes and Maike taking a bit more time for their second boy Kaya. Traveling with a 3 year and a 5 month old, they definitively mark the “one up” occasion to our Blue George compact car setup. They travel with an even smaller slightly older VW Polo – with only the trunk space and a roof box for luggage. Although with their traditional tent, they definitively scored the jackpot regarding the spot. A little bit further away from everyone, in between shady trees hugging a small stream. It looks like an ad for free camping, but with hot showers and cold beer available within 50m.
In the afternoon we shared a beer or two, swapped travel stories. We returned to our camp just in time for a tortilla dinner. Only my second try at a Spanish tortilla, and with the added difficulty of the camping stove, it came out pretty decent. Nina and Baby enjoyed it.
And so, our day of sweet little nothing ended with a fine sunset and a final (real cold) non-alcoholic beer after Number 3 went to bed.

Still a weird kind of picky eater: Never enough, but alwas brave. Spanish ham, this time 
too much nothing, sleep needed 
Everyone in their zone 
Found a stone! 
Slightly jealous – but the mossies are even more anoying there
