Vignettes from Jim and Emmy's years of travel


France, Campsites

Campground Hotel

In campgrounds in several countries (France, Yugoslavia, Poland, and more) we saw a very large bus with 30 or 40 passengers, pulling a very large trailer that contained beds for all the people. A large door in the very back of the trailer opened and uncovered the kitchen, where cooking went on for hours. During the day, and in the evening, the bus was used as a tour bus, and took the travelers to see the sights of the area.

When parked for the night, one side of the trailer opened, then was covered by canvas that provided a little privacy as people crawled into bed. Each bed was in a little cubical, and we would suppose that one or two of the 42 little windows were available for each sleeper compartment. But we never inquired as to how many people were permitted, or required, for each compartment. Looked awfully crowded to us, but what a wonderful way to provide low cost travel accommodations for Europeans who seem to have an itch to wander.

Here is a group of travelers enjoying their meal that was cooked in the kitchen in the rear of the Camping Hotel Trailer. You can see the tour-bus where the passengers ride during the trip, that also pulls the trailer.

We have no idea which campsite this is or where it is located — we have seen this acitvety in several countries.
