Next time you’re in the USA, come to Texas. We’re on the Gulf, have great weather, hundreds of things to do, friendly people, great food and many state parks and inexpensive camping areas!

Beautiful pace! Don’t forget to use disposable gloves when working with emptying tanks, just Incase it goes wrong, Try keeping baking soda in the refrigerator to keep smells down. I hope that helps the smell. Enjoy your travels here.

@esthers5772 Жыл бұрын

It’s obviously too late but when I’ve had fridge problems, I put ice in the crisper. The fridge ends up being used like a cooler. Also, instead of chicken stock when travelling, bullion cubes are an alternative. Looking forward to the next video :) BTW, I hope the RV rental company compensated you for that terrible dirty rig! 👋🇨🇦

@lethastewart4397 Жыл бұрын

Also, most American grocery stores also carry chicken stock/broth in small cans…about the size of a soup can. I second the ice in the crisper drawer. You could also buy a cheap styrofoam cooler, put ice in it and store it in the fridge.

@RoamingRadfords Жыл бұрын

I love this idea, but I think the crisper drawer was cracked, so the melted water would have just leaked out for a whole new set of dramas! I do love this tip though x

I’ve no idea what your location is in real time, but Key West itself is a really nice spot. Very chilled. Chickens literally strolling around the streets. Kelly’s Caribbean bar/grill (Top Gun fame). Lovely town to cycle around. There’s businesses along the keys that offer you opportunity to swim with dolphins (Captive). Please don’t. I’ve visited Taiji, Japan where dolphins are captured to supply these businesses. It’s all bad. Disregard Key West reference. I’d typed that while half way through the video. You’ve definitely been and gone at this stage.

@RoamingRadfords Жыл бұрын

I totally understand your thoughts! Weirdly the RV is only a year old, it’s a style that Cruise America buy in bulk. As for the campsite prices, the Florida Keys are huge Tourist Attractions and we were there at Peak season. Hang in there and you will get an idea of the true cost of “Holiday Parks”. Thank you for continuing to support us, we do really appreciate it. Xx
