The story

This trip, again by camper, made in 1988, has no captions or travel diary because it was taken with a film camera, photos later scanned and transferred to the computer; the diary, on the other hand, was lost in the various house moves. This holiday was taken alone: me, my wife and a child we had in foster care; for him, but also for us, it was an adventure. Nowadays trips in this country are better organised and it is easier to find rest areas or campsites; back then everything was more spartan, but more liveable and far less touristy.
