There is a place where gigantic rocks covered with moss emerge from above the foamed water surface. Their juicy green harmonizes wonderfully with the turquoise water. This is the Cliffs of Moher, the pearl of the Irish coast. The Cliffs of Moher (Cliffs of Moher) is one of Ireland's greatest tourist attractions. Made of sandstone and limestone, they stretch for about 8 kilometers and reach a height of 214 meters at the highest point. It was created by the power of nature - rainwater was gradually washing away the limestones, carving fancy forms in the rock. They are part of the Burren and are found in the West of Ireland, County Clare.

The Bailey Retreat caravan was created for those users who spend a lot of time in the caravan without moving too often. So if you would like to spend your summer at one campground and winter elsewhere, Retrat may be useful for you. Currently, manufacturers of camping vehicles (but also other products) focus mainly on mobility. More and more often they design light, modular and comfortable solutions with an active lifestyle. Meanwhile, Bailey and his largest trailer model seem to follow the current trends.

One of the most important Spanish ports in the Mediterranean Sea lies at the foot of a rocky mountain on which stands an ancient fortress. This is Alicante, a city whose Arabic name means "source of light". The real tourist pearl of the Costa Blanca coast is Alicante, a resort popular among Poles visiting the Spanish Levant. The nearby beaches tempt lovers of tan and blissful lounging on the sand. Among them is Juan de Alicante, considered the favorite beach of the inhabitants of Madrid. It can be easily reached by the city tram FGV.

Tires in caravans and motorhomes need to be especially taken care of. This is due to the fact that they are usually subjected to very high loads. But even if the RV is left unused, it also damages the tires. If you haven't used your camper or caravan during the winter, check the tires carefully before your first trip in the season. If they have been exposed to frost (or the sun) for a long time, they may have bulges or cracks . To protect the tires from the harmful effects of weather conditions, it is best to cover them during longer stops . In the case of trailers, it is a good idea to remove the wheels when not in use.

On the other side of the Mediterranean Sea is a huge continent, still alien and exotic to most Europeans. Its largest country is Algeria, with hectares of deserts and semi-deserts. Algeria is a country that has a lot to offer tourists, although at the same time "difficult", both due to the political situation and the fact that it is a relatively conservative country in terms of religion. Foreigners must comply with the rules in force therein, incl. women are not allowed to enter some temples, they are also not allowed to appear in public in inappropriate clothing (e.g. bathing suit, bare knees and shoulders, etc.).

Although the Italian Arca offers well-equipped motorhomes, their biggest distinguishing feature is their attractive appearance. And because we like to drive cars that look good, Arca could probably count on interest also in Poland. In Italy, Arca is almost synonymous with a motorhome. It all started in the mid-1950s, when the idea came to take the wheels off the caravan and install the living area on the truck chassis. It took several years to transform the idea into a specific product, and finally, in 1961, the Arca Noe model was presented at the Genoa Boat Show.

The fourth largest commercial port in Europe is located on the Black Sea in Romania. It is a famous and increasingly popular tourist destination, and it is called Constana. A long time ago, the Roman elegic and poet Ovid was exiled to Romanian Constana and spent the last years of his life there. Today it is hard to believe that a stay in this beautiful seaside resort could be a punishment for anyone. Constana is Romania's second largest city, and as a port connected to the Danube, it is the main transit hub for the Danube countries.

Luxurious? This is an understatement. This caravan is absolutely unique, and this is evidenced not only by its equipment and unimaginable price. The biggest novelty is the design - for the first time such a large vehicle was made of carbon fiber. Americans like to surprise by building things even bigger and more innovative than anyone else. The CR-1 Carbon trailer, developed by Global Caravan Technologies, is the best example of this. The key word in this case is "carbon". The CR-1 trailer would probably not be such a sensation if it was a small trailer. Here, however, we are talking about a vehicle that measures over 10 meters ! How to produce carbon fiber walls and a roof, developing the material to such monstrous dimensions, remains a company secret for the time being.

Without a functional battery in the caravan, it will not be possible to rest, and in the case of a motorhome, even the journey itself will not be possible. That is why batteries in camping vehicles should be carefully looked after. In the case of a motorhome, we will deal with two types of batteries - the first is the starter battery , which must quickly provide a large amount of energy to the engine in order to start it. For this reason, such a battery will have a different structure and parameters than the utility battery. The latter is installed in the residential parts of motorhomes and caravans, and its role is to supply power to on-board devices.

Taking advantage of the sunny and warm as at the end of October Sunday, we decided to use the last rays of the autumn sun and take a small package to the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland, or rather to its northern part, near Złoty Potok. Our plans include visiting the ruins of the castle in Ostrężnik, the ruins of the castle in Mirów, and at the end of the day making a fire and eating sausages. At 12 o'clock the bus was already fully loaded and in the composition of Dominik, Bartek, Maciek, Alicja and Marek we headed towards the Jura. On the way we stopped in Biedronka for a little shopping, and immediately after that we went to our first point of the trip, i.e. to Ostrężnik for sightseeing castle ruins. The ruins are located on a small hill, which we climbed quickly and efficiently and started exploring, e.g. Maciej decided to visit the Ostrężnicka Cave there, where, as he later told and showed photos, he saw bats and numerous spiders, so it's good that I was not tempted by go in there. Alicja and Marek disappeared from our sight somewhere for a moment, and Bartek and I took pictures and admired the view from above, which presented a typical autumn landscape, where we did not look, the leaves formed a brown-gold carpet on the ground. Unfortunately, this "carpet" turned out to be very tricky, because it hid stones under it, on which it was easy to trip and fall. It was unfortunate that Maciej, jumping off the wall, unfortunately fell on such a stone, hidden under the leaves, which was additionally wet and twisted his ankle. It was not without dizziness and a momentary rest, but after a few moments Maciej returned to the living and the boys took their friend by the arm and together they dragged him down to the bus, where the ankle got relief in the form of ice, and for Maciek the sightseeing was over but he could get to know Tripi better, as he spent most of the day there, although he had nothing to complain about as he lay comfortably back on the couch. After treating the ankle, we went to another place to visit the ruins of the castle, this time in Mirów. We took some photos on the spot, we climbed the rocks, we drank warm tea until the sun started to slowly set.

With the sad reputation of the poorest country in Europe, Moldova is slowly being discovered by tourists. It fully deserves attention, repaying it with wonderful landscapes in the silence of the fields. Moldova is not only a country of grapevines, but also an attractive tourist country, despite its poverty. The landscape consists of vineyards, hectares of fields stretching gently to the horizon and colorfully decorated wells standing by the roads. Driving from Ukraine towards Romania, we can stop for a moment in several places worth visiting.
