Out recent visit

#1

Post: # 12367Post stowie39 »

As some of you may know we were lucky enough to "escape" Wales in September and spend a couple of months in Los Altos, strange but enjoyable times.

I thought you might like to have a look at a small clip of dash cam footage of our journey down, only 30 seconds, of a road our dedicate Garmin sat nav nav thought was suitable for our 3tonne, 6 metre campervan. there was over 13kms of this. There is no swearing on this bit.

We did have to have new tyres and tracking sorted during our stay - I wonder why?

It is a link to my Google Drive - I cant seem to upload this file format to the forum.

Many years ago I selected non toll roads on my tom tom going to Santander, it took me up a dry riverbed, I kept driving stupidly, nearly grounded the company car but got there in the end, as soon as I got the other side of this riverbed I switched to toll roads! There are hardly any tolls the way I was going from further south in Spain.
