We arrived at Davan caravans where we handed in our Wildax Constelation camper and picked up our new motorhome - Pilote Aventura.
Our handover took longer than expected, and when we headed off we were hungry so decided that we would stop off for something to eat. We did not get far before we came to a standstill on the M5.
People were out of their cars whilst waiting for traffic to move but because we were in the motorhome we were able to see what was going on and also find food and drink. It was not as bad as waiting in a car.
However it was very frustrating as it was a lovely day and very hot behind the glass.
Once free of traffic we continued on our way to Modbury, where we met my family for the weekend.
We arrived at California Cross about 5pm where my sister had made us a yummy curry for our dinner.
Before we could tuck into it though we had a task to do. The cream had to be whipped to go with the strawberry pavlova, however we did not have a whisk and only had a fork to do this. We took times in this and after an hour and half and Billy's persistance, the cream was whipped.
More fun later when my sister had a gas leak from the regulator. This meant she had to use her electric kettle but there was a problem there too. The kettle kept fusing the electrics, so in the end we kept the kettle topped up and on the boil in our motorhome.
After filling our stomachs we then retired to our motorhome for our first night in our new van, where we had a good nights sleep.
