4Runner Roadtrip – Turkey Part 2

After leaving Fethiye we were headed to Kaş. Kaş is another costal town that we were quite looking forward to visiting.

RV Roadtrip – Sweden Part 2

After leaving our friends and Norway, our first order of business was some maintenance on the camping car. We were overdue for new tires and had been for quite a while.

RV Roadtrip – Norway Part 2

After Bergen we were headed north and then east before dropping down through Lillehammer and down towards Oslo to meet up with our friends, Tom and Katie.
