Camping in King's Canyon

Dear Diane and Bill,

Thank you very much for the letter with picture we received from Diane yesterday and for her kind words. It should go without saying that people take good care of your vans and we were happy to do so. We so much enjoyed driving around in it, we really had a great time! It was wonderful that you put in everything we needed, like oil and vinegar and herbs, so you don’t have to start shopping and buying all kinds of big bottles. That was absolutely wonderful...
...If ever we get back to California, you will surely see us for coffee or a meal. Good luck with your lovely company and thanks again for everything!
Take care,
Nicolien, Rob and Aster

We miss Albie!

Hi Bill!

It's already one month ago that we left California and we really miss it! We miss the beautiful weather, the coast and especially the Californian people! And of course we miss Albie!

We hope you are all doing great, are you still so very busy? Or has the time arrive that you can spend some days at the beach yourself?

Do give our greetings to everyone!

In Holland it's raining all the time, but Yuri's going to work in Monaco for a few weeks and the weather will be probably better out there. Sammie and Diede are busy doing their school at the moment, and they hope they can return to California as soon as they pass their exam (in 3 years)...

Bye,

Edith, Yuri, Sammie and Diede

The Long and Winding Road (not so much)

Rien and Sarah just sent a batch of photos to us all the way from Holland, and I must say they are outstanding! I think this particular photo was taken near Death Valley... not the place you'd want to travel to at the moment, seeing it's summer and all, but the perfect destination in our 'off season' here in Southern California.

Rien owns his own vintage rental business back home in Holland called Vintage Road Trips.

Happy Father's Day Dad, from Chloe!

We will make sure this finds it's way back to you Dad :)

Vintage Road Trips in France, Italy and Holland!

Imagine exploring the French countryside in a vintage 2CV, your tour is completely mapped out for you, you can stray off the appointed path if you prefer, take in the sights and at the end of the day's journey check in at your reserved BnB. Then sample the local culinary delights accompanied by French wine!

Vintage Road Trips rents 2CV's, mopeds and more recently Fiat 500's and T2 VW bay window camper buses from a number of locations in Europe. They offer daily rentals and customized road trip packages.

Phineas Flynn leaves a note...

I was cleaning the Kukui Nut yesterday and came across this thank you note tucked inside one of the storage cabinets. This is the kind of thing that makes this business so special - meeting all the interesting people that rent from us, and knowing that they've had a blast!
