Autumn holidays! Day 1: Road Trip

Schnitzel April 18, 2016

From our previous holidays know that the perfect way to get around is by car, with the whole family, heaps of suitcases, a camera – like the real tourist deal. Everybody should have some days away from home at least twice a year, we said. And off we were :)
