Picking up our "Tiny House"
We pickup our Dethleffs Esprit 88 from McRent in Isny im Allgäu on 25-Apr and will return it to the same location on Thursday 17-Oct, 175 days later.
Isny im Allgäu is a town in south-eastern Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It is part of the district of Ravensburg, in the western, Württembergish part of the Allgäu region, and is at 704m elevation.
On the way from Munich to Isny we will pick up a couple of electric bikes that (we hope) will have been delivered to Wolfgang's parents home in Illertissen, south west of Munich, and at some nearby Ikea - everything else that we think we will need to fit out our new home away from home.
Dethleffs Esprit 88
In case you are wondering, here are some images of an Esprit 88 in Pokeno - like unto our home for the next 6 months (which will not have a TV)
Next stop... the Airport.






I see you are staring in the Baden region... Our recent travel had us stay a night in Baden-Baden, with a drive through the northern part of the black forest... Recommended!

Hej Michael and Karilyn. Welcome to Europe! I hope the flights went well. The four - yes four: Johanna, Astrid, Agnes (born Feb 26 2019) and I would love to see you if you happen to drive through Kinda. Your home-away-from-home looks fantastic - happy travels. Mvh
