Our motorhome website is now up-to-date because I have just finished adding the text to the pages of our trek to Cham, close to the border of Czechia in the east of Germany. Our return was via the Alsace to purchase wine — what else would you expect from the Wandering Winetasters? Back home now
First long trek of the year, 2,200 miles through Germany to Cham for a square dance event, returning via Mittelbergheim in the Alsace to stock up on top quality wines purchased direct from the growers. Diesel prices were high, as you would expect, because of the war. Check out our route and read about the
Our homepage has been updated so that it now shows maps of our motorhome treks, this is a big improvement because it lets you select what you want to see directly from a map. The problems with google Timeline continue, as far as we can see google Timeline is no longer any use to us.

Another large trek through France and Spain in September 2024 now completed and available. I’ve moved away from Google maps and am now using OpenStreetMap for the actual maps and a mapping tool that helps to generate the individual points and maps that you see on the pages. Overall I think the process is working
The recent changes to Google’s Timeline have been nothing short of a disaster! Moving the storage of Timeline from Google’s servers to the user’s device doesn’t sound much, but it messes up a lot of things. I can no longer view my Timeline in a browser from my iMac, I can’t download the route that
