Innsbruck - Belgium



Innsbruck - Belgium
4th July
We arrived at Camping Natter See  around lunchtime really lovely site with another great shower block with huge shower rooms and mirrors with lights and hairdryers. Another lake here but it is man made and has really good inflatable with slides etc.   We have been  into town a couple of times on the shuttle bus and had lunch out and a look round the shops, amazing Swravski shop.
We were hoping to go on the cable car today but it is pouring with rain and misty  everywhere so we catch the shuttle and Jim gets to watch the football then we grab some shopping and just make the shuttle bus back.

Germany
7th July
We arrived at Camping Waldpark Hoehenstadt in Germany today after a 5 hour drive just in time to hook up have a quick look round then Jim went to the bar to watch the England match and although I didn’t go with him the results kept coming up on my phone so in the end I was a bag of nerves waiting for the finish.  We ate in the campsite restaurant a really lovely meal of mixed fish and pizza bread, all good except for the bouncy squid.

Belgium
8th July
We had a huge drive today from 9-5 with only a break for lunch and the all singing dancing sat nav once again was rubbish and caused a lot of stress as it does not tell you in time when you should turn off at junctions etc and in the end we had to rely on my phone to get us to the campsite.
Met by Luke at Camping Reamerik lovely man really friendly and we have a nice pitch and it’s really peaceful.  Have spaghetti with everything that’s left in the fridge, red pepper, courgette, panchetta, mozzarella plus 2 tins of tomatoes reduced down and lots of Parmesan mmm mm.

Camping Punta Indiani Lake Caldonazzo


Camping Punta Indiani at Lake Caldonazzo
1st July
We left beautiful Camping Trasimeno today and after 6 hours driving arrived at Camping Punta Indiani on Lake Caldonazzo and it is really beautiful, once gain we have a lakeside pitch and the water here is actually very clear. Jim has a swim and then we have a look at the local restaurant and book a table. Local supermarket is really good and only a 5 minute walk which is a bonus.
Meal is a bit strange as Jim orders restaurant speciality fried river fish expecting a piece of fish but when it comes up it is literally about 100 tiny fish like whitebait with mash so glad I didn’t order it, I have pasta with red prawns  and courgettes it’s ok but nothing like food in Passignano.
2nd July We had a lazy day by the lake and bar b que cooked in the oven as it was a bit windy and didn’t want to set fire to neighbours awning.
3rd July our last day here. Today we went by train to Trento it was a absolutely boiling so we had a look round then stopped for some lunch and caught the 3pm train back.

Incredible storm tonight and then it cleared and the mountains looked amazing.

More from Lake Trasimeno

Lake Trasimeno
It’s our last night at Camping Trasimeno and we will be sad to leave it has been an amazing 15 nights at a truly 5 star campsite. 
We have visited a wonderful vineyard and tasted delicious olive oil and wines made by a very talented lady Stephanie Mezzetti.   We have visited Sienna which was really beautiful and also Assisi which had the most incredible Cathedral but not for us unfortunately the best of food where we paid a fortune for a tiny piadina and coffees. Yesterday we went on a boat trip to The Island of Maggiore which was ok but the weather was extremely hot so we only stayed for a couple of hours. 

We will definitely return to Camping Trasimeno it has won a place in our hearts.
