Oh how exciting - thank you for taking us with you. Looking forward to all your adventures Rachel & David

[@CaravanVlogger]

Great to see you caravanning to France. Look forward to following your adventures 👍🏻

[@RailAdventUK]

Not all too sure how i missed this series. Catching up now, great first episode :)

[@drbdrb113]

Have a great trip guys

[@vicdunni]

Fab video, Lucy is absolutely lovely, such a sunny personality.

[@robforrest12739]

Easy done with the step. I’ve done exactly the same (although left outside our house so didn’t lose it). Arrived on site without it though.

[@CaravanningAdventures]

Nice one Oliver and Lucy. Enjoying your vlogs. Loved your comment re your French. We went about a week after you and after doing Duolingo for a few months I was over confident and just froze in Lildl Guines it was so embarrassing and all the lady was saying to me at the check out was take your water off the conveyor it won’t move. They never covered that one on Duolingo. Going to watch your Mont Michel one properly next. Brings back memories as before the construction work we took the kids there when they were little and there was a car park directly in front of it and we parked the caravan up there. Thanks again for sharing.

Nice to see you all back on our devices again - it seems like a while or have I misunderstood ?

[@CaravanningwiththeCoxs]

Thank you, just very busy with other things at the moment so this had to take a step back.

[@tanksontour]

Nice one Oliver and Lucy. Looking forward to the next one, still don’t understand how you could miss that monstrously large step being placed back in the van? 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

[@CaravanningwiththeCoxs]

I know silly me ;)

[@karenkent4767]

Nice to meet you much. Welcome to the family. France we need to get back there ourselves.. love Vic and Karen, say hi to mum and dad for us

[@bigjolly1000]

Hi Oliver and Lucy loving your Vlogs. We are heading to France in August and would love if you could give the names of the sites you visited and roughly how much the fees are.

[@CaravanningwiththeCoxs]

We went to Camping Haliotis, Camping La Yole and Camping Vanlee. Best to check their websites for up to date pricing.

[@DJMarshy]

Great video I’m looking at taking my van abroad Is it true you have unplug the van from the car so you can’t use the van fridge

[@CaravanningwiththeCoxs]

I’m not sure if it’s true or not but it really depends on how your car is wired. Obviously you can’t take food across now anyway but I unplugged just incase.

[@DJMarshy]

@@CaravanningwiththeCoxs 👊👊👊 thanks for the reply much appreciated

[@mulberryaddict938]

We don’t unplug but you risk draining the battery. However you can’t use the fridge without the car running and 12v won’t keep it cool like hook up or gas. Can’t take a lot of food anyway so no point having it on really.

[@leemesser1873]

Hello brilliant video I'm hoping to be caraving over to France and explore Europe just wanted to know what was the price on the ferry to take a caravan

[@CaravanningwiththeCoxs]

Cost us £650 return from Poole to Cherbourg. The Brittany Ferries app is great for checking out prices.

[@DianeJolley]

Use google translate for your shopping, massive help 👍

[@adamsher86]

Hi Oliver, have you taken the b+E test or do you just use it as oer the govt uodated everyones licences? Was curious fir travelling abroad? Cheers, Adam.

[@CaravanningwiththeCoxs]

Hi, I haven’t done my BE test albeit was going to. So I just sent my licence away to have BE added so it showed as this was a recommended thing.

[@adamsher86]

@@CaravanningwiththeCoxs Thanks for letting me know. I have it on line but no dates so will prob do the same thing and send it off to have the dates added.

[@davidmatthews3093]

What’s that bizarre thing on the front of your caravan all about?

[@CaravanningwiththeCoxs]

It’s a towing cover, protects the front windows from stone chips.
