    Many, many thanks - love the pic of those 2 in the water ! To busy playing with trains to get out but we're planning a trip for November into the Alps. Hiking getting less easy is something I unfortunately know only too well.... Thanks !

    My Journey

    Cabin pictures are very much appreciated. Tanners ears could have been hitting something solid.... Ask me how I know... Had this once happen to a Golden Retriever of ours and like now, the ears were clean etc. We think perhaps a fly, or something like that, caused him (was Hogan, our 1st...

    What can I do to make anything remotely as interesting as you ? Catching up after a trip to collect a Land Rover in the UK that will be with us and work for a living... On the ferry last night - it was a bumpy night... Please keep the pics and stories coming - can't get enough. Thanks !

    Balkans and east, barking dogs threaten our trip 🙁

    Welcome to Overlanding. Not a common problem really. Noise cancelling devices may work - but basically you'll have to learn to live with noise.

    Sorry to have been so long - but away on travels that are work.. Love the pictures and the story - this is a seriously good and intersting post. Some of those books are hard to find on this side of the Atlantic.. The dogs claim to have missed me.. I've driven the Ineos with the BMW diesel...

    The most dreaded Land Rover of them all…the P38!

    P39 are very nice vehicles when they run - but LR went a bit too far with ECU's etc. when they were not really read to do so and it shows.. As with everything, maintenance is your friend and I know several here that have some serious miles on the clock without too much problems. I prefer the...

    Ex army trucks - Are they worth it?

    Looking at what you'd want, I'd have a look at an Iveco EuroCargo 4x4 - or convert one - as they are about a simple as they come, 2.4 x 6 mtrs deck (or bigger) will give you a nice platform to build on, fuel consumption is -/+ acceptable, parts and mechanics are there and comfort is actually...

    My Journey

    I looked at your Mark Twain reference and really don't see why that would be considered offence - or what ever.. But then again, I'm from a different country (while it lasts) and Continent so things are different here.. Love your posts, love the dogs and in general it gives me, as said before...

    Texas to Alaska to Texas. 2020 Honda Accord Hybrid driving on the Dalton Highway and the Dempster Highway. July/August 2023.

    $ 1,000 doesn't buy a lot of fuel here I'm afraid..... Getting an auto box should bot be a problem to hire. Have Fun !

    Not sure how long you're staying here in Europe but please note that we have loads of speed camera's, speed limit (Holland = 100 km/h. on the motorways 07.00-19.00 hrs.) and it is usually quite busy.. Food in France is quite nice but portions are less than in many other countries. Be Safe...

    My Journey

    Love this and you've spoken some wise words. And yes, many memories are not for sharing. Having jumped many times out of airplanes in the '70's and '80's - and dropped loads of others - I know what you mean. I have done the 1st. trip with these 2 - the Chocolate is not sure yet what to think...
