After a leisurely breakfast, we had a read for a bit. My nice lady from Eurocamp came over, and gave us a tourist booklet about this particular area of Garda, and a booklet about boat trips. I was starting to feel guilty about leaving after only a day – she thought we were there for a week or something.

At around 9.30, we snuck out of the campsite and travelled the 6km to the Eden along the twisty Garda roads. When we got there, they let us in to save blocking the road outside, and our pitch was free, so we pitched up, and got everything set up – van levelled, hookup hooked up, windows and vents open, flyscreens up, chairs and table and groundsheet out and unpacked, awning out.

Initial impressions of the site were good. It was clean, the pitches were a reasonable size – although the ground sloped sharply, all pitches were terraced, and reasonably level. Although it’s another quite expensive site (€36 a night), it was clean and well-kept, with a good-sized pool with plenty of available sun loungers, shop, restaurant, and WiFi! More on that later.

We met Ed and Julia, our friends from back home who have a static caravan here, and shared water and beer with them.

Went up to town. New bar. No cash from machine. Ed with invite & ended up sharing a bottle of red wine. Pasta (ages to cook) for dinner. Drinks with them.
