Algarve parque de Autocaravanas, on Friday 9th Oct 26

  • Time: Oct 09, 17:43:47
  • Place Name: Algarve parque de Autocaravanas
  • Notes: Tavira Motorhome Park, 12.50€ with Ehu

The Motorhome park has easy parking loads of waste and water points, just what a motorhome site needs.

Day of 3 issues, thought about breaking a match, would have avoided an hour of stress.

  1. Getting here was a nightmare satnav tooks us through the cobbled streets of Tavira, Jacqui had to get out and move bins so that we could get through a one way system we should never have got caught in. Narrow, narrow cobbled streets, overhanging balconies, lots of parked cars, cafe seating, a long tourist train. Previous van would’ve stood no chance we would’ve needed more help.
  2. Nearly sprained ankle falling off a large hidden step kerb.
  3. Van electrics, went off this evening. Took ages to get back not sure why but the Xtura can be a bit sensitive to ehu overloading inverter. Usually, it’s a fuse, or worst case the big red switch. This time no fuses, turning inverter on off, combined with big red switch, everything eventually started working, all apart from hab step. It’s a mercedes and has some weird link between vehicle and hab power. You have to open driver door for other things to start working e.g. step, waste😵‍💫
