RV FEATURE
I must say I throughly enjoyed the experience of this motorhome but , most of all , it was comfortable for Grace to travel and sleep in . It really is travelling in style , with all the mod cons any of us need .
After making it to the stunning Discovery Holiday Parks in Echuca , which has jumping pillows , games rooms , a water theme park , mini golf , and walking tracks to the banks of the Murray River , we set-up our motorhome .

AN ADVENTURE CUT SHORT
The main drawback of motorhomes compared to caravans is that they are not particularly easy to get around town in . You have to pack up camp and get on the road in order to explore the town and come back to base and set it all up again – it ’ s much easier when you can leave the caravan on site and just take the car – but this really did not pose any great problems for us .
I soon discovered that most ‘ tourist ’ towns cater for large vehicles , such as motorhomes and buses , so I found parking no problem in the middle of town . Packing up camp was not much of a chore , either . We cooked bacon and eggs in the motorhome , washed up and cleaned our cabin area and we were off . These are the things you would do before leaving the caravan behind anyway . So I surprised myself at how easy it was being an avid ‘ caravan man ’. I ’ m not a complete convert but I ' ll certainly have no reservations doing it again in a motorhome .
